Description
This 50 mm humbucker slug bobbin is designed for standard-spaced humbucker pickups and is intended for the non-adjustable (slug) coil.
The 50 mm pole spacing aligns correctly with traditional humbucker string spacing commonly found on hardtail bridges, Tune-o-matic bridges, and vintage-style guitars. Proper spacing ensures accurate string alignment, even magnetic response, and consistent output across the pickup.
Molded in classic cream, this bobbin is suitable for new pickup builds, rewinds, restorations, and custom humbucker assemblies, including both vintage-inspired and modern designs.
