NOwaxx Retro 64

Rating is 5.0 out of five stars based on 1 review
Set of 3 calibrated pickups

  • Description

    The NOwaxx Retro Series from past times. From the end of 1964 a new material came into play: The Plain Emanel wire. The insulation is compared to its predecessor (Heavy Formvar) slightly thinner, which results in a less sharp sound. Single coils from the 1964 period sound warmer, thicker and less aggressive than their relatives from the 50s.

    Absolute Spitzenklasse in Sachen Pickups!

    Ich habe in meiner (ebenfalls von Martin gebauten) HSS Strat im Hals und der Mittelposition das Retro 64 Set, in der Bridge den Hot PAF. Ich habe noch viele andere Gitarren mit den unterschiedlichsten Pickups, die ich gerne mag. Aber bei der Strat mit den NOwaxx Pickups denke ich mir jedes mal "so gehört sich das" :-)

    Sie klingt viel offener, klarer und lebendiger als die anderen, ich kann wirklich nur Gutes berichten und war mit ihr schon auf sehr kleinen und sehr großen Bühnen - das Feedback hält sich auch absolut in Grenzen. Ich überlege schon, wo als nächstes NOwaxx Pickups rein kommen :-)

About NOwaxx

Unwaxed pickups have richer overtones, sound fatter and less held-back. In other words: You get more of everything. There lies the rub: Unwaxed pickups are prone to create feedback. That's the point where NOwaxx technology comes into play! Through a sophisticated System Martin Hornauer managed to kill feedback without using wax. All NOwaxx pickups are hand-made by Martin in meticulous single-item production.  <more>
