1. Kinman The Scoop Pickup Set (3)
The Kinman The Scoop Pickup Set belongs to the so-called Generation 2 series of non-aged sound pickups by Chris Kinman. Here, the pickups feature higher magnets and coils. Additionally, the often-overlooked slight loss of response and presence that occurs with closely spaced magnets (in the middle and neck positions) has been compensated for. It delivers the sound of mid-70s Strat® single coils with a noticeable reduction in low mids. The highs are fine, and overall, the tone is not harsh but pleasantly balanced. It has a subdued response and is very transparent, open, and almost acoustic-sounding. Full in the bass. Zero Hum with 3x The Scoop white pickup covers.

2. Kinman Pickup AVn-59 neck (1)
Single-coil pickup for the neck position. The AVn-59 has a fuller tone and more output than the AVn-62. Compared to the SCn, it is slightly weaker. Aged Tone, meaning slightly less bass and treble, but more midrange presence. With these characteristics, it is very well suited for the typically harsh-sounding bridge position. It also performs well in the neck and middle positions without sounding overly dominant. In switch positions 2 and 4, the AVn-59 produces a very notable vintage sound and is ideal for pairing with other AVn pickups. 6.4 K-ohms Resonance 3.6 KHz Inductance 2.67 H Medium high output.

It features a so-called 600 Ohm Noise Sensor.

6. Kinman Pickup Big Nine-0 bridge (1)
Zero Hum Single Coil Pickup
Pole spread: 52.5 mm (bridge position)
Normal improved stagger to suit 7 - 14 uniform radius fretboards including USA Custom Guitar Compound 7-1/4 - 9-1/2
White cover
The Kinman Big Nine-0 is an impressive single coil pickup. At first glance, it may appear to be a standard Strat pickup with Alnico magnets, but the name suggests it possesses the power and soul of a P-90. It pairs perfectly with a humbucker, as it can easily match them in terms of output and tonal character, all without any hum. The Big Nine-0 is magnetically advanced and needs to be installed close to the strings to unleash its full potential. It boasts an astonishing 9.5 kOhm and delivers fantastically thick, singing highs. In the neck position, it is noticeably more defined than a P-90. The entire set produces the typical twang in positions 2 and 4, but with a significantly thicker sound than usual. The Big Nine-0 is about 3 mm taller than conventional single coils, measuring 25 mm, so it’s advisable to check the routing of the guitar before purchasing.

7. Kinman Pickup Impersonator E69 neck (1)
Zero Hum single coil pickup with a pole spread of 49.5mm (neck position) features a white cover. It delivers warm, natural highs that resonate beautifully in chords, with remarkable presence thanks to pronounced overtones. This pickup avoids sharpness and unpleasant peaks.

8. Kinman Pickup Impersonator MV bridge (1
The Kinman Pickup Impersonator MV bridge is a high-quality instrument pickup specifically designed for guitars. This Zero Hum Single Coil Pickup features a pole spread of 52.5 mm and is ideal for the bridge position. It has been designed with an improved stagger design that is perfect for evenly radiused fretboards ranging from 7 to 14 inches, including the USA Custom Guitar Compound from 7-1/4 to 9-1/2. The pickup mimics the sound of an original '54 pickup but offers increased dynamics and power, particularly on the E6 string. With a slightly milder twang compared to other models in the Impersonator series and balanced mids, this pickup is perfectly suited to reproduce the characteristic sound of the 1960s, as exemplified by Hank Marvin.

10. Kinman Extra Vintage Humbucker
Description: A humbucker from single coil master Chris Kinman. Long overdue, because anyone who understands a single coil also knows how to build a really good humbucker. At a time when pickups can’t sound or look hot enough, Chris Kinman goes in the opposite direction: tone. The new humbuckers have significantly fewer windings, resulting in a rich, powerful tone that retains definition and clarity even at high gain settings on the amp. The Extra Vintage produces singing highs and detailed mids. It offers more vintage tone than most PAFs. In the high gain range, it remains impressively clear and harmonious. It can also be split, reminiscent of a strong single coil. Pole spread (E6-E1): 50 mm, suitable for Gibson in bridge and neck position (recommended), as well as Fender neck position. Color: black/chrome.
