The MTD Kingston Super is the perfect combination of beauty and brawn.
The stunning carved body and premium finishes perfectly support an incredibly powerful electronics package.
In addition to a 3-band active preamp, Michael Tobias included a 3-way mini-switch for each MM-style pickup.
In the down position the pickups are in hum-cancelling series mode, which gives a big, bold, punchy sound.
In the middle position the pickups are in single coil mode, making them sound bright and twangy.
In the up position the pickups are in hum-cancelling parallel mode and they sound bright and sweet, with a slightly lower output than series mode.
When both pickups are in single coil mode they are hum-cancelling when the blend pot is centered.
NOTE THAT THE PRE-AMP HAS BEEN UPGRADED TO THE USA VERSION WHICH INCLUDES ACTIVE/PASSIVE SELECTION.
That is a lot of tonal flexibility.
Michael has given you a massive pallet of sonic colors.
So get yourself a MTD Kingston Super and start painting!
