Kinman BMN Surf/Bright Master/Neck Pickup, White

Surf Master (formerly the Bright Master), has the juiciest sound of all Kinman pickups, it’s the Master Grand Piano of the pickup world. Louder and more dynamic with greater presence than the Fat Master, this pickup has a full bodied sound with a powerful sharp twang and exceptional piano mid-tones. The dynamic range is so excellent you immediately relate it to Dick Dales sound, but you’ll get more than that with these Jazz master pickups. The huge, lush bass end has a nice kick, some refer to as springy or bouncy sound courtesy of the huge dynamic range. Middle switch position (bridge and neck Surf Masters on together) delivers better than authentic both-on-together sound with intense hollow cluck. The 6 rod magnets are Kinman’s proprietary Alnico-k** magnets which deliver cleaner sound devoid of string crash and pitch warble. Supplied with your choice of White or Black covers. Original Fender covers are generally not suitable should you want other colors but Aged White and Cream covers without magnet holes are available on eBay. Use a brad point drill bit to make the holes to suit the magnet spreads we offer. Middle switch position (bridge and neck Surf Masters on together) delivers intense both-on-together sound with that wonderful and dynamic hollow cluck. Some people will call these noiseless Jazz master pickups but Kinman prefers to describe them correctly as Zero-Hum Jazz master pickups. That’s because there are 2 types of noise, Hum which is cancelled in the pickup and Buzz which can only be minimized by shielding the wiring cavities (refer to > Technical > Perfect Guitar > Shielding for newer guitars US Patents 7, 022, 909 & 8, 791, 351.
