Description

The Cornucopia Humbucker Pickup by McNelly

The McNelly Cornucopia Humbucker is a versatile, medium-output humbucker designed to deliver exceptional clarity, punch, and dynamic response across a wide range of musical styles. It combines the airy openness and sweetness of a vintage PAF with a tighter low end and enhanced articulation, allowing it to remain focused even under overdrive. The pickup excels in everything from warm jazz and blues tones to classic and modern rock applications. Its balanced frequency response and touch sensitivity make it one of McNelly's most popular humbucker models. Handcrafted in Canada, the Cornucopia is valued for its ability to cover virtually any genre without sacrificing character or nuance.
