Oil City Neo -X-Breed updates
What's Hot
The whole pandemic thing seriously delayed the roll out of my new stable of 'extended range' Neo-X-Breed pickups. However they will start going up on the Oil City Pickups site as of next week!
The premise behind Neo-X-Breeds was simple: the mainstream manufacturers were simply making 7 and eight string pickups that were rehashing their 6 string designs - sometimes simply in slightly different form factors - but still pickups designed for normal EBGDAE tuning and directly not too far in design Seth Lover's original 'bar magnet PAF'.
The Neo-X-Breed was developed to use the best characteristics of both 'rare earth magnets' and conventional alnico or ceramic magnets to produce a smooth and musical top end (that neodymium alone struggles with) combined with the ultimate in tight, fast tracking bass. The X Breed uses our 'tuned magnet structure' where each string gets the strength of field it needs - not the same amount of field as a bar magnet gives.
Our endorsee Jeff giving the conventional form factor 7 string versions a work out.
