Systems and methods for a variable aperture electromagnetic pickup for stringed musical instruments

摘要

Embodiments disclosed herein describe systems and methods for asymmetrical bobbin configurations. Embodiments of asymmetrical bobbin configurations are configured to allow manufacturers and users to modify, adjust, change, etc. the tone of pickups. The asymmetrical bobbin configurations are configured to boost frequencies on strings on an instrument, wherein based on the configurations of the bobbins different frequencies may be modified.

1. A variable pickup for a stringed musical instrument comprising:
an upper and lower flatworks, the upper and lower flatworks being symmetrical in shape; a plurality of pole pieces extending through the variable pickup from the upper flatwork to the lower flatwork; wherein each of the pole pieces is configured to be positioned over a different string of the stringed musical instrument; an asymmetrical bit configured to have wire positioned around an outer perimeter of the asymmetrical bit, the asymmetrical bit including a first side and a second side, wherein the first side and the second side have different diameters, wherein the asymmetrical bit is configured to amplify tones of a first string positioned under a first pole piece positioned proximate to the first side less than tones of a second string positioned under a second pole piece positioned proximate to the second side.
