Introduction

An example of poly enamelled copper wire designed specifically for guitar pickup windings is 42 AWG wire. This particular wire is currently in stock and weighs approximately 0.5kg to 2kg per shaft. In addition, manufacturers offer the flexibility of low-volume customization, allowing the production of other colors and wire sizes of wire to meet specific requirements. The minimum order quantity for this product is 10kg, suitable for individual guitar enthusiasts and commercial guitar manufacturers.

There are several advantages to using enameled copper wire in guitar pickups. First, its high conductivity and low resistance make it ideal for transmitting the electrical signals produced by the vibrations of guitar strings. This results in a clear, crisp sound output that improves the overall sound quality of the instrument. Additionally, the polymer coating provides excellent thermal and mechanical protection, ensuring the cable remains intact and functional even under demanding playing conditions.

Our Pickup Wire started with an Italian customer several years ago, after a year of R&D, and half-year blind and device test in Italy, Canada, Australia. Since lauched into markets, Ruiyuan Pickup Wire won a good reputation and has been chosen by over 50 pickups clients from Europe, America, Asia, etc.

We supply specialty wire to some of the world's most respected guitar pickup makers.

The insulation is basically a coating that is wrapped around the copper wire, so the wire doesn’t short itself out. Variations in insulation materials have a huge effect on a pickup’s sound.

We mainly manufacture Plain Enamel, Formvar insulation poly insulation wire, for the simple reason that they just sound best to our ears.

The thickness of the wire is usually measured in AWG, which stands for American Wire Gauge. In guitar pickups, 42 AWG is the one that’s most commonly used. But wire-types measuring from 41 to 44 AWG are all being used in the construction of guitar pickups.
