Gowen 69 single coil
Based on original late-1960s single coil pickups, with clear highs and balanced output. Wound with 42 AWG wire and kept deliberately low in output, the Gowen 69 set preserves the natural high end and dynamic range associated with this period.
Each pickup is voiced for its position, with slightly stronger bridge and neck winds and a lower-wound middle to maintain balance across the set.
The result is a bright, chimey sound : clean tones remain open, while driven sounds keep their top end without becoming thin. The middle and combined positions produce the characteristic tones expected from a late 1960s three single coil configuration.
