Fibenare guitar and bass pickups & electronics

It's not so easy to make original sounds & designs among todays pickup makers..Thats why the pickup gurus of the company tried to adopt the reciept that was succesfull in wood working. They mixed traditional and new methods & materials to create the unique Fibenare sound palette. All of our pickups are symetrically hand-winded, this way we can make entirely custom sounds, and they are everyting but mass-producted. To give our guitars more nature-close & detailed sound we use the less plastic that we can in our coils we use high quality woods instead. The wide palette of Fibenare sounds is achieved by the usage of three different magnet types, a dozen of different winding materials, several coil geometrics & winding methods.

All of our humbucker pickups come with 4-conductor wiring, this way series, parallel & single coil switching is not a problem.
All types of pickups have it's neck & bridge variant as they have different output & pole-piece spacing, to be right under each string.

Bass Electronics

Fibenare bass electronics are designed & manufactured entirely by Fibenare. The electronics have the following controls:

1: Series-parallel PU wiring switch
2: Active-passive electronics switch
3: Active Bass (+-15dB @ 40Hz)
4: PU selector
5: Active Mid (+-15dB @ 800Hz)
6: Active High (+-15dB @ 6kHz)
7: Master volume

Note: Bass EQ in 4 string basses works at 60Hz.

The electronics works with full-FET input.
The batteries are 2x9V=18V.
On the back of the guitar there's a red led which flashes when jack cable is connected, and starts to blink when battery goes out. From the start of blinking there's still 4-5 hours of palying time.

Piezo & MIDI options

Piezo and midi functions are available for all of our bass models and all of our guitar modelas with fixed bridge.

We use two piezo rods in each saddle to have a well ballanced acoustic sound that ignores picking direction.
