Description

The Schecter 6230 Pasadena Plus-8 is a bridge-position humbucker for eight-string guitars. It runs a 4-conductor harness with a split-coil design, which means you can wire it for full humbucker, single-coil, or series/parallel configurations depending on your switching setup. Output is 16.0k ohms. The magnet is Alnico V, direct-coupled to the pole pieces. The baseplate is solid nickel/silver. This pickup is sold for bridge position only — it is not a neck pickup.

Two things decide whether this part fits your guitar. First, string count: this is an eight-string pickup. It is not interchangeable with a six- or seven-string pickup. Second, pole spacing: the 6230 uses 72mm Traditional Spacing, which is a bridge spacing. Putting a neck-spaced pickup in a bridge route places the outer strings off the pole pieces — if you are replacing an existing bridge pickup, confirm the spacing of the original before ordering. Also check whether your body is direct-mount or ring-mount; they require different hardware, and that hardware is not included.

The pole pieces are eight nickel-plated carbon steel units at .1875" diameter, with eight #5 slot pan head Phillips nickel-plated carbon steel screws. If your existing pole screws are stripped or corroded, the thread spec on those screws is worth confirming before you source replacements separately.

If you are not certain this pickup matches your guitar's route, string count, and spacing, send us the make, model, and year and we will tell you before you order.
