Aging tints: As of December 2000 Kinman pickups for Strat are fitted with a new design pickup cover which is moulded in either Black or a special White plastic that's capable of being stained to a variety of colours . As well as Black and White I also offer Mint, Aged White, and Cream. See my Glossary Aged Covers for full details. As of May 2006 most of my colours are moulded into the plastic during manufacture and the colour is very uniform.

I do not offer metal plated covers for Strat pickups. Real metal plating affects the sound excessively and Metallized deposits that dont affect the sound like my Tele cover require a special plastic which requires it's own prohibitively expensive injection molding tool.

No Logo covers: (May 2006) No logo covers are specially made that way. NOTE: when you order pickups without Kinman Logo you will be charged extra.

CAUTION: Do not attempt to fit foreign replacement covers to Kinman pickups. Some of these foreign replacement covers are not faithful reproductions of Fenders and are too small and will fit too tightly onto Kinman bobbins. Often these covers destroy the bobbins when attempting to remove them.

Removing covers requires special knowledge. Click on this to learn how to remove covers without damaging the pickup
