Duesenberg CrunchBucker Bridge Humbucker Pickup (Nickel)

The Duesenberg CrunchBucker is the high-output sibling of the GrandVintage humbucker. It is an Alnico humbucker precision wound with a thinner insulated wire and more windings on each coil, which raises the output and gives a fatter, more saturated tone while the voicing stays warm and defined. Duesenberg fits it at the bridge of the Fantom A alongside a GrandVintage at the neck.

Features

• Alnico humbucker with more windings of thinner wire for increased output
• Open German Silver cover, which does not cut treble the way brass covers do
• 4 conductor wire for splitting or series and parallel wiring
• Distance between polepieces 50 mm (E6 to e1)
• Standard humbucker dimensions, pickup frame not included

In Use

Pairing the CrunchBucker at the bridge with a GrandVintage at the neck is the setup Duesenberg chose for players who want a heavier rock tone from a Duesenberg instrument. The 16.4 kOhm DC resistance puts it well above the GrandVintage, so it drives an amp harder while the German Silver cover keeps the top end open.
