Standard 42 AWG vintage plain / formvar copper enamel guitar pickup wire

What does it do?

A pickup is what makes an electric guitar electric. It takes the physical vibration of the string and turns it into an electric signal. With this key component, your amplifier and any effects you use then have a signal to shape and amplify.

Most electric guitars use magnetic guitar pickups. They consist of either a single magnet, or a magnet for each strings, each with thousands of turns of fine wire wrapped around it. When the strings are played, the vibration in the strings produce a corresponding vibration in the magnet’s magnetic field, which then induces a vibrating current in the coiled wires.
