The Dual Foil: Double the Mojo, Zero the Hum

The legendary Gold Foil sound—now with a Humbucker heart.

If you love the grit and “air” of a 60s Gold Foil but can’t live without the punch (and silence) of a Humbucker, this is your holy grail. We’ve taken the soul of the original Teisco-spec internals and doubled down.

These are 100% Humbucker / PAF sized, meaning they’ll drop straight into your Les Paul, SG, or 335 without you having to touch a router. It’s the ultimate “stealth” upgrade for players who want a unique, boutique voice in a classic chassis.

Dual-Threat Performance

These aren’t just hum-cancelling Gold Foils; they are tonal chameleons. Built with 4 conductor wiring as standard, you can split these into true single coils for that iconic, chimey bite, or run them in full humbucking mode for a thick, authoritative roar.

• Full Humbucking: Deep, rich, and harmonically complex.

• Split Coil: Bright, percussive, and beautifully lo-fi.

The Specs

We haven’t cut any corners. We use the authentic materials that define the Gold Foil era, scaled up for modern versatility.

• The Build: 44AWG wire and rubberised ceramic magnets for that unmistakable vintage response.

• The Power:

  • Neck: $7\text{k}\Omega$ ($3.5\text{k}\Omega$ when split)

  • Bridge: $10\text{k}\Omega$ ($5\text{k}\Omega$ when split)

• The Fit: Standard PAF footprint. Includes mounting screws.

Sound & Feel

Expect a bright but full sound with exceptional string definition. Even under high gain, the clarity stays intact, making these perfect for players who use their volume knob to sweep from clean “woody” textures to saturated rock tones.
