Gus	Re: Noiseless Pickups looking at the cutaway of the fender the "new" thing about the stacked pickup seems to be the soft steel plate between the coils (shunting the mag field away from the lower coil and enclosed part of the magnet???) I looked at the Kinman awhile ago the if I remember correctly the pickups had magnet in the top coil and metal slugs(soft steel/iron????) in the bottom coil with a H shaped metal plate to keep the top coil field isolated from the lower coil. WHO was the first with the metal magnet field Plate and proper Indutance and proper resistance????????????
