This product has not yet been fully developed and is not listed for sale.
The all new 'Converge' Multi-Sound switchable humbucker with additional Fender and P-90 sounds ..... all Zero-Hum.
Three-in-One for the price of two. Our 3n1-n Humbucker with P-90 and Fender is 3 times as remarkable. Flick a switch and you will get the following sounds:
-
Fender sound which is authentic with immediate snappy attack, nice piano mid tones and present highs.
-
P-90ish which produces bouncy lows with nice whack attack and sweet highs. The low wound strings are better behaved and are more resistant to the mushy blurring that plague regular P-90’s.
-
Humbucker which has better low wound string definition than most regular humbuckers and sweet highs that obviate the age old complaint that regular humbuckers are conversely too bright on the plain strings and too dull on the low wounds at the same time. Our 3n1-n humbuckers are well balanced in all respects and are more dynamic.
Think it ends there? Think again, all of the above have absolutely Zero-Hum. 400% more amazing than the best regular pickup money can buy. But that is to be expected from the King of Noiseless.
Packed with the most advanced passive pickup patented technology under one cover in the universe, price is a bargain at $395 each. Includes the convenient special switch for selecting the three sounds and preventing hum.
We supply the Converge-4 with 3 point mounting adjustment so you can Tilt and Slant at will. This is necessary to fine tune and balance the humbucker sound and the Fender sound. The two 4-48 UNC bass side mounting screws are 8mm apart. However the pickup can be used with the conventional 2 screw mounts but we don't recommend it.
Compatible with Kinman Goodbye Soldering Harness KHP-90 for 2 pickup Gibson and similar -and- K9-H for Stratocaster HSS and HSH and similar.

Direct replacement for conventional humbuckers such as Gibson, Duncan etc. Some guitars (a few Ibanez, some Fender Strat and one or two others) have pickups with excessively rounded corners. If a pickguard is fitted (for example Fender Strat Deluxe) a small modification to the pickguard opening to accommodate a Kinman humbucker is well worth the effort since Kinman's sound so much better. The cavity in the body is suitable as it is.
