Abstract

Pick-up for stringed intrument includes two series connected coils (36,46) with a capacitor (38) connected in parallel with one of the coils (36) to shunt that coil to ground for other than bass frequencies whereby the bass frequency characteristic is enhanced. In one embodiment the shunted coil (36) is wound in one direction around a permanent magnet (30) with its north poles adjacent the strings and is located at a point one-third of the distance between the end of the neck connected to the body and the bridge so as to be positioned to receive bass frequencies better. The other coil (46) is wound in the opposite direction around an oppositely directed magnet (40) and is located at a point halfway between the first coil and the bridge. Thus a humbucking arrangement is provided. In a modification each coil is wound in opposite directions around a pair of oppositely directed magnets to provide enhanced humbucking. <IMAGE>
