The new Micro-Manouche pickup for Gypsy Jazz and Traditional Jazz guitars. The Micro-Manouche is the best Krivo Pickup for D-hole and F-hole Gypsy Jazz Guitars.
Simple and effective: The Micro-Manóuche has been 10 years in the making: Krivo design intention was to combine the best features of my most successful pickups for jazz guitar (Mini Humbucker, Nuevo and PAF) into a simple and cost-effective package. After much experimentation I am proud to say that the new Micro Manouche is the the most affordable and versatile Krivo Humbucker available: Clarity and warmth with a bit of a gritty edge to the tone.
The Micro Manouche has exceptionally great string-to-string balance: this pickup completely solves the balance issues which have beset other magnetic pickups for gypsy-jazz guitars.
The Micro-Manóuche excels on every type of gypsy-jazz guitar but this not merely a "gypsy" pickup: it sounds fantastic on archtops and vintage instruments. The Micro Manouche features a beautiful laser-engraved brass-plated cover.
