Wilkinson's R Series of pickups presents the Caliber 7884, a product of the brand's two decades of expertise in crafting pickups.
The high-output humbucker was initially created based on an artist's request and employs Alnico V magnets to produce a sonically balanced, rich and harmonically-full sound suitable for an extensive range of music genres including blues, rock, and more.
The Caliber 7884 is built with nickel silver backing plates and 4-conductor wiring, which allows for coil splitting and a range of classic single-coil tones and wiring configurations. This humbucker is an excellent choice for musicians seeking a vintage tone with a bridge position that is high-output and a neck humbucker that is complementary.
INNOVATIONS
Trev Wilkinson's early exposure to the legendary sounds of guitar greats greatly influenced his own playing and future in music. Hank Marvin's use of vibrato sparked Trev's interest in a device that would later become an integral part of the Wilkinson brand.
The tone and sound created by other iconic players such as Clapton, Beck, and Green also had a profound impact, as did the instruments and components that produced these tones.
R SERIES CREATION
The R series of pickups represents the culmination of years of meticulous listening, research, and development. Drawing on his extensive experience and collaborations with industry pioneers like Seth Lover and Leo Fender, Trev focused on every aspect of sound, materials, and production methods.
This attention to detail is evident in the exceptional quality of the R series, making them the pinnacle of Wilkinson's pickup offerings.
