TV JONES 045174 TV-HT UNIV BRIDGE, NICKEL

TV-HT™ Bridge Pickup - Universal Mount™

The TV-HT is our take on the famed Gretsch HiLo'Tron pickup. This single-coil pickup is made close to the original but with a bit more output in the bridge position. This gives the sound more integrity and push - often what players wanted from the original HiLo'Trons. These pickups are also made to be hum-cancelling in the middle position (when both are on).

Tone/Characteristics

Twangy, clanky single-coil goodness with a touch of natural midrange. The TV-HT is designed to produce twangy bass and crisp highs perfect for that old school sound, but also surprisingly cool with a lot of gain (due to its low output and translucent clarity). If you are a player who likes it crystal clear with a nice'n tight bass response (even more so than the TV Classic and Magna'Tron) - these are for you.

Output/Power

DC Resistance is not entirely an indicator of true pickup output, although it can be helpful.

Bridge: DCR - 4.3k / Inductance - 1.85H

Neck: DCR - 3.4k / Inductance - 1.22H

Installation

The Universal Mount is a direct drop-in replacement for standard sized Filter'Trons - with and without "ears" or "clips". This pickup comes with two pieces of compression rubber, 2 mounting (wood) screws, and the Universal Mount Clip Pack which includes everything you will need to mount the pickups to your ring or pickguard.
