Description
Tone that's straight out of a juke joint.
Primal and unrefined... without the hum.
Fully-potted cigar box guitar humbuckers, gnashing out a powerfully hot 9.22 k through Alnico magnets. DeltaBuckers deliver gloriously trashy tones for deep electric blues. Yeah, you read that right: trashy. Essential for slide guitarists looking for the elusive tones that fall between "Chicago Hound Dog" and "North Mississippi RL."
No wiring. No soldering. All DeltaBuckers are prewired - you choose the harness options. Just shove 'em in your next masterpiece and plug it into an amp. It's as simple as that.
DeltaBuckers feature engraved wooden bobbins, and come pre-wired to a mono output jack with a 14-inch shielded lead. These pickups come pre-installed in hardwood rings (choose wood type), making installation even easier, and are available in both 3- and 4-string varieties. Chrome mounting screws for the pickup ring are included.

This 3 string cgb sounds great and the deltabucker was exactly what I hoped for in tone quality. The deltabucker required that I dado a 3/8” deep groove into the guitar neck. I reinforced the neck with a piece of red oak oak cut to the inner dimensions of the cigar box. It prevents any flexing of the neck as I play. A fun project that I would take on again. David

CBG #5, “Blueberry Maple Walnut Macanudo”, features a fully contoured hard maple neck, walnut fretboard, and a Macanudo Gold box. Sporting a Deltabucker and blues blaster LMM strings, it’s ready to go down on the corner, or anywhere. Fat sound from a long, lean guitar.
