Great guitar sound is not as simple as tone or sonic timbre. To be described as great, guitar sound must have dynamics and be alive. It must also possess great articulation and definition and the strings must be highly touch sensitive. Only when a pickup possesses all of these attributes can it be said it's a great feeling and great sounding pickup. Kinmans also have Zero-Hum.
Here at Kinman that's what we strive for and achieve.
