In some builds it is preferred to place the pickup under the lid of the box, this practice is often referred to as "ghosting". Many builders have had good success using the MGB Mini Box Buckers for these applications.  MGB is proud to introduce our new single coil Point Five O flat pup designed for ghosting. Make sure the magnets face the strings. 

By adding more wire and strengthening the magnetic field we have a solid solution. These new pickups are a single coil version of the Lucky 13 pickup. They only have one coil and  measure 6.5 k ohms plus, thus the name Point Five O or .5. We have found in testing that the pickups work well when the distance from the pickup to the strings is .5". 

Measuring 2.56" by 1.6" and .3" thick, these pickups can be used on 3,4 and 6 string builds. Works with our 6 string Boxbucker covers.

Single coil ghost

I’ve been using the Lucky 13 for my ghost pickups and like them so I thought I’d try these because I like the sound of a single coil. It does not disappoint. Good volume, tone and easy to install.

Worth every penny !

Talk about getting a bang for your buck Definitely lives up to its protégé the Lucky 13 ghost pick up , this single coil version sounds awesome and works just as 13 ghost it under the thicker lids if you prefer a single coil versus Humbucker that this is the only pickup you need especially if you have beautiful artwork on the box and don’t want to cover it

Rockin' single coil pickup

I am a huge fan of the single coil Micropups, but man, I love these Point Five O flat pups even more. If you are ghosting a pickup under the lid, and maybe don't have room for a Lucky 13 humbucker, these babys won't let you down. Great sound! You won't be disappointed!
