The Mr. 2000: A Masterpiece of Single-Coil Design
The ultimate single-coil experience, featuring six individually adjustable Alnico 5 rod magnets.
Our Mr. 2000 is a labor of love, inspired by an original 1962 Rowe Industries DeArmond pickup that came to our workbench years ago. It delivers the classic "Dyna" sound: a rich, vocal character with a clean, snappy bass response.
Unrivaled Adjustability
The Mr. 2000 has a unique structure. Because you can adjust the six individual rod magnets, you have total control over the magnetic field. This makes the pickup much more sensitive to fine-tuning than a standard design.
Tone Sculpting with Magnet Height
The unique design of the Mr. 2000 makes it incredibly versatile. You can change the "voice" of the pickup just by adjusting the magnets:
-
Raise the Magnets: Setting the magnets high and lowering the pickup body (the coil) gives you a bright, punchy vintage sound.
-
Lower the Magnets: Setting the magnets down into the coil gives you a fat, clear sound with a deep bass response.
There are, of course, many different combinations between these two setups to help you find your signature tone.
