Product Description
The Nordstrand Music Man MM4.4 Alnico 4 String Quad Coil Humbucker. FREE shipping anywhere in the USA!The MM4.4 is the pickup to use if you want all the switching options. Each row of magnets is actually 2 coils (2 magnets each), so the pickup can be split and remain hum cancelling in any configuration. Front coil, rear coil, series, parallel... This pickup has all the basses covered. Includes black cover (exposed pole pieces).
This works great in Lakland installations where you want to maintain the original switching for the MM pickup. This pickup has four coils arranged in two linear hum cancelling rows, one set for each row of magnets. You can run it series, parallel, or split it to the front and/or rear coils and maintain silent operation in all modes. It's the most versatile pickup we make in this style. It does sacrifice a little high end because of the extra coil wire required for the hum-cancelling design.
