BRIAN SETZER SIGNATURE - BRIDGE - UNIVERSAL MOUNT
The Brian Setzer Signature pickup is derived from Brian’s longtime preference for the TV Classic but is a bit more over-the-top than our other Filter’tron creations. It features a proprietary design which employs special-alloy pole screws (with more steel) and mix-matched coils which highlight the response of the magnet. This combination of small tweaks provides a perfect sonic match to the man’s persona and musicianship.
TONE/CHARACTERISTICS
Utilizing unique coils and pole pieces, this design provides more clarity while producing some of the punchiest low-mid response in the TV Jones line. The classic Setzer sound is slightly overdriven yet clear, with a defined and tight/punchy low end. With slightly higher output than a TV Classic, the Setzer Signature punches through a mix with ease and dexterity.
INSTALLATION:
The Universal Mount is a direct drop-in replacement for standard sized Filter'trons - with and without "ears" or “clips”. This pickup comes with two pieces of compression rubber, 2 mounting (wood) screws, and the Universal Mount Clip Pack which includes everything you will need to mount the pickups to your ring or pickguard.
TECH SPECS:
OUTPUT/POWER
DC Resistance is not entirely an indicator of true pickup output, although it can be helpful.
Bridge:
DCR - 6.3k / Inductance - 2.35H
Neck:
DCR - 4.5k / Inductance - 1.7H
WIRING NOTES
This pickup is shipped with 4-conductor wire but is ready for standard 2-conductor connection. The extra red and green wires come soldered together and taped off - to split coils, send these to ground.
Splitting coils is generally not recommended for this pickup due to low coil output but some say it works well to their taste. 4-Conductor wire is also convenient for custom switching i.e. pickups combined in series or parallel.
HELPFUL NOTES:
Filter'tron Replacement:
The Universal Mount is a direct drop in replacement for Vintage Filter'trons, HS Filter'trons, Fideli'trons, Mega'trons, Full’trons and any other standard sized 'Trons (including old No Ears & English Mount). Blacktop Filter'trons require one Dual Screw Mount Adapter per pickup in order to attach to their stock rings. When replacing Broad'trons and Gretsch-Buckers, you will need a new EM2 Ring.
Post-2012 Electromatics:
One Dual Screw Mount Adapter per pickup will be necessary to mount Universal Mount pickups to your stock ring.
Streamliners:
These guitars are made with "Gibson-style" rings instead of standard Gretsch rings. You will want to choose either an EM1 or EM2 Ring to replace these when installing a Universal Mount Pickup (this depends on which style you prefer). If you choose the EM2 Gretsch Style Ring you will also want a pack of Ring Risers.
Gretsch 5120/5122:
New Rings and Ring Risers are necessary for this guitar due to it's high neck angle.
Pre-2012 Pro Jets:
These will require some specific modification in order to install Universal Mount pickups.
Humbucker Replacement:
To replace standard Humbuckers, pair this Universal Mount with one of either the EM1 (Gibson-style), EM2 (Gretsch), or EM4 (Fender-style) rings.
