Our Aella model has classic vintage Strat low mid scoop, a strong twang and purity and sweetness of glassy highs, it also has quite a strong vintage output. Generally, the sound is highly dynamic and springy with great touch sensitivity that makes rapid picking so effortless.
Aella is a Greek mythological girls name meaning 'storm wind or whirlwind'. The name implies this pickup is capable of sonic mayhem as well as sounds of extraordinary feminine beauty ... thanks to the prevalence of intense piano-mid-tones.
Artemis is the most liberated female in mythology and our namesake model has the most liberated sound and feel. Highly dynamic, very touch sensitive and lots of twangy piano mid-tones with nice trebles. It is far louder than Aella and balances better with humbuckers in the same guitar.
We recommend a set of 3 to consist of an Artemis bridge for raunchy leads and and a pair of Aella in middle and neck for cleans.
The bigger the string the greater is the magnet pull that is exerted on it. The B-7th is very big but our special Alnico-K5 rod magnets have just 60% of the magnetic strength of regular Alnico-5 so string pull is minimized, as is string crash and string warble (Strat-itis) while sustain is maximized.
Another big PLUS is, like all our other Magnum Opus products is our exclusive Anti TCS technology (Torn Cone Syndrome) ... it's that horrible shattering of the sound when the low wound string is plucked with a strong sharp upstroke. Try it on your existing pickups and I guarantee you won't like what you hear.
Kinman Strat pickups are known to be not only the best noiseless but the best Strat pickups period ... and now here is our new Septimus S series and it's no exception. Come out of the dark ages with these technical and sonic Masterpieces.
Signal chain requirements for best tone and dynamic performance: Like any pickup it's not a bad idea to use a low capacitance cable to get the incredible performance of these pickups and hear all the nuances you and your guitar can muster. Learn why here Any old cable won't do.
