  • 3-band active EQ for precise tonal shaping.
  • Shielded electronics compartment for reduced noise.

Incredible Tonal Flexibility
Equipped with twin MM-style humbuckers and 3-band active preamp, the Kingston Super 5 lets you sculpt your tone with precision and depth. Each pickup features an independent 3-way mini-switch, allowing you to toggle between:

- Series Mode (Down Position): Big, bold, and punchy.
- Single Coil Mode (Middle Position): Bright, articulate, and twangy.
- Parallel Mode (Up Position): Sweet, clear, and slightly lower output than series mode.
- When both pickups are in single coil mode and the blend pot is centered, they are hum-canceling, ensuring a clean, noise-free signal.
