Description
Mojotron® with mounting “Ears” Edition: The Ultimate Hybrid Set
Vintage jangle in the neck. Modern muscle in the bridge.
For the player who loves the classic FilterTron® aesthetic but finds traditional bridge pickups a little too polite, the Mojotron® mounting “Ears” Edition is the answer. This set is engineered for versatility, pairing a crystal-clear, vintage-spec neck pickup with a high-output bridge that’s ready to growl.
Designed with the standard “ears” mounting bracket, these are a direct drop-in for Gretsch®-style guitars and custom builds requiring traditional FilterTron mounting.
The Best of Both Worlds
Most FilterTron sets are balanced for low-output “chime” across both positions. We’ve broken the mould. By using 42AWG wire for the neck and a thinner 43AWG wire for the bridge, we’ve created a calibrated set that offers:
-
Neck: of pure, bell-like clarity. Think 1950s rockabilly and jazz-inflected cleans.
-
Bridge: A boosted output that provides the “push” needed for rock, blues-lead, and saturated gain without losing that signature FilterTron character.
Both pickups are built around a massive 1/4 inch Alnico 5 bar magnet, ensuring a punchy, hi-fidelity response with tight lows and singing sustain.
Key Features:
-
Classic “Ears” Mount: Standard FilterTron footprint for seamless installation.
-
Calibrated Output: Perfectly matched for volume parity when switching positions.
-
High-Gain Ready: Fully wax potted to eliminate microphonic feedback, even at stage volumes.
-
Boutique Build: Large Alnico 5 magnets for a wider dynamic range.
Technical Specifications
Installation
The Mojotron® “Ears” edition comes complete with high-quality mounting screws. Whether you are upgrading a vintage hollow-body or finishing a new custom build, these pickups provide the structural “snap” and tonal “twang” that defined a generation of guitar music.
Pro Tip: The bridge pickup is a game-changer for players who use overdrive pedals. It retains the “FilterTron string-definition” but hits the front end of your amp just hard enough to sizzle.
