Yves Guen Original Pickup ST51 Original

At long last, the original Stimer pickup is now available! This pickup is a reissue of the original design by Yves Guen. Yves' son, Christian, is now producing these wonderful pickups which adhere completely to the original design. They yield the same classic sound that Django and so many other great Gypsy players made famous. This is the "monkey on a stick" version which is installed via a mounting rod that is suspended by a supporting base that is clipped onto the strings behind the bridge. Also fits perfectly on archtop guitars and sounds great!
