They make great pickups but are out of business. They had single coil sized humbuckers for stats.
What do you want to know. I have a lot of experience with the pickups. & wireing in series or parallel as a humbucker.
i have a question: can the sound of an ultrasonic humbucker be compared to the sound of seymour duncans? and if you replace a single coil pickup of a strat with an ultrasonic humbucker, do you have to wire it differently then the old one was connected?
at the nineties was the Ultrasonic a not too popular pickup series. There was a single coil size and a humbucker size pu.-s signed with 1; 2; and 3, Number 1 had a low output like vintage Strat pu. It was possible the wiring to weld on the underside of the pu
They came in a Tom anderson guitar, PRO AM with a black and white bowling ball finish. Kirk Hammett Played it, and I want one of those guitars or the pickups

COMPANY FROM GERMANY. OUT OF BUSINESS IN 88 OR 89.
EACH PICKUP SOLD FOR ABOUR $90 UNTIL THEY WENT OUT OF BUSINESS THEN THEY WERE $5.00.It took less than 6 months to go out of business.
If you have one, hang on to it!
I have 2 ultrasonic stacks on my American Strat with
1 seymour duncan invader! I will never replace!

Hmm good to know. I actually have 2 Ultrasonic single coil pickups I bought mid-eighties, I will give them another try I guess, cannot remember how they sounded. Hope I still have the wiring diagram somewhere.
: Would anyone know what would be the price of those pickups now, single coil S2 type ?
I bought three of the humbucker(singlecoil shape) for 20 EUR each. Very,very happy with them. Ohm readings are from 9,5 kOhm per coil down to 3,5 kOhm)
The true single coils go for 18 EUR each usually. (They are branded - COBRA).
Sometime you find also true humbuckers in full size shapes from them.
