Description
The pre-wired Wickedbucker harness is by far, the easiest magnetic pickup to install out there. No routing. No wiring. Just choose your color, drill some holes, and install!
And get tone for days...
This harness features "bullet" style press-fit connectors, which means that this is is a fully NO-SOLDER wiring option! Just drill a small hole under where the pickup will go for the wires, and drill holes to mount the pots and jack, and you'll be good to go!
If you could say one thing about the creative team at Gitty, say that they're always thinking. Here we've taken one of our popular "WickedBucker" surface-mount humbucker pickups, and turned it into an easy-to use pre-wired harness! These pickups are hand-wound in the USA by Marty Tauber, and are based on the "FlatPup" design invented by Elmar Zeilhofer and produced by Dan Sleep. We do all of the wiring for this harness right here in the C. B. Gitty workshops using top-quality Bourns pots and Neutrik jacks.
Do not try to remove the clear tape that covers the pickup, as this will pull off the tiny wire windings and probably ruin it.
Impedance: ~2.87 kOHM
Width: 2 1/4"
Height: 1 7/8"
Depth: 1/4"
Here is the list of what is prewired to this pickup:
- One WickedBucker Pickup (finish color may be Brushed Aluminum, Bright Copper or Burnished Brass black depending on what you choose)
- One 250k Volume potentiometer (pot)
- One 500k Tone potentiometer (pot) with .047µF capacitor
- One ¼-inch jack with washer and nut
* A note about potentiometer and capacitor choice: this is what we use on the harnesses we wire in-house. We use these because in our testing, we have found them to work well with cigar box guitars. You may have strong feelings about using other values, and that is OK, and you can certainly pick out the combination you want for your own custom kit from our other separate parts listings.

GEN2 Laser-cut Fret Scale Marking Templates - provide both Chromatic & Diatonic Styles - Pick your Scale!
I have always wanted a shovel slide guitar like the one Justin Johnson makes, but I couldn't afford it. So I decided to make one and it was surprisingly inexpensive especially with the parts from Gitty. Thanks guys! I tried an experiment to create an unusual paint job which I then covered with 2K Gloss Clear. I was really pleased with how it turned out and it always gets noticed in my collection.

Photo captions tell most of the story, but I will say again the quality of the kit was great! It helped me to avoid the old "Start a project, finish it someday" syndrome". Hooked it up to mini-amp and right away enjoyed the sound. (I didn't screw anything up! Win-Win!)

This was a fun little reso build. Castillo box with a repurposed junk wood neck. Still sporting the original green paint it had on it when I found it in that alley. It's powered by a pre wired Wickedbucker pickup. She has a great reso tone playing unplugged. And she roars when plugged in!! Thanks for the gear Gitty gang??

This is the first time working with a fuel can - I built a thin wood inner support so the can wouldn't get bent up during use. I also repostioned the fuel can handle and added dice for volume and tone control knobs.
