TV Jones T-Armond Bridge Guitar Pickup, Soapbar Mount, Cream
Manufacturer's Description
T-Armond™ Bridge Pickup - Soapbar Mount
Our version of the original DeArmond 2000 pickups are more controlled in the high frequencies, taking away earth shattering ice-pickiness while keeping that "off-the-rails" attitude that these pickups are known for. Of course, at lower gain levels they sing with unmatched fidelity and clarity. Tom designed our T-Armond set after Brian Setzer's '56 Silver Jet that was used on his Dirty Boogie album. That guitar spent many hours on Tom's workbench over the years.
Tone/Characteristics
The T-Armonds are in a league of their own with crystal clear highs, bellowing lows, and a tastefully controlled midrange. They perform really well with and without a lot of gain. Some say they sound like tele pickups on steroids.
Output/Power
DC Resistance is not entirely an indicator of true pickup output, although it can be helpful.
