The Walter Humbucker
The Walter is a unique humbucker built for players who want clarity, character, and classic vibe all in one. Featuring a carefully balanced mix of Alnico 2 and Alnico 4 magnets, this pickup sits in that sweet spot between softness and punch, perfect for expressive leads and full-bodied chords.
Wound with 42 AWG plain enamel wire to a moderate 8k DCR, The Walter delivers a warm, articulate tone with sweet highs, rounded lows, and just enough midrange bite to cut through a mix. Whether you’re after clean vintage chime or slightly pushed breakup, it responds with nuance and soul.
Encased in a Nickel Silver cover and available in copper or brash mesh, clean or aged finishes, The Walter looks as good as it sounds.
