The Ankou is the highest-output set in the Asyllum Pickups humbucker range. Its overwound Alnico 5 bridge pickup delivers heat and authority while remaining clear and articulate at very high gain.
 
Rich mids and a fluid response keep saturated sounds focused and musical. The Alnico 5 neck pickup is carefully balanced with the bridge, providing warm, full tones without losing definition.
 
Although the Ankou has a more contemporary output, its harmonic character retains a strong vintage foundation. The result is a versatile bridge between classic and modern humbucker tones.
 
Every set is built to order. Before winding your pickups, I may contact you to confirm model-specific choices such as RWRP wiring or wax potting. This personal setup service is included at no extra cost.
