We take orders from all over the world and ship worldwide. We will be happy to send you your new microphones whether you live in Europe, in and outside the Eurozone, in North, Central and South America. We also ship to Asia (Korea, Japan, Vietnam, Thailand, China).

For Switzerland, we require a shipping address in a bordering EU member country (France, Germany, Italy or Austria), due to the recurring problems caused by Swiss customs.

If we do not offer a shipping method for your country, please contact us, we will be happy to add your country.

And don't forget, for all countries outside the European Union, a -20% reduction is offered to you with the code INT2023 , to be used when validating your order.

The threshold to benefit from free delivery is €150, final basket amount, for all countries to which we ship. This concerns the most economical delivery method with tracking. Other paid delivery methods are also available beyond this amount.

We use the same color codes as Bareknuckle Pickups by default for the wiring of our humbuckers. In this way, it is very easy for you to use the very complete wiring diagrams that BKP offers on its site at this address .

If you ever wish, for practical reasons (fitting a Cecca microphone with a microphone from another brand such as Gibson, Seymour Duncan, Dimarzio, Fender, etc.), you can ask us for special wiring. Simply mention it in a comment on the order confirmation page.

We wire our pickups with 5-conductor cables, one for ground and 2 (start and end) for each coil.

We do not have an assembly diagram specific to Cecca Guitars . We therefore refer you to the Bareknuckle Pickups website which offers a very complete series of diagrams for all (or almost all) pickup configurations.

Unless expressly requested by you, our 4-conductor wiring respects the color codes of Bareknuckle microphones. You can therefore use their diagrams without any hassle.

RWRP or RW/RP is the acronym for Reverse Wind / Reverse Polarity. This means in French: Inverted Winding / Inverted Polarity. We could therefore say “BI/PI” but we avoid :-).

Technically, RWRP is used with single coils only (Telecaster, Stratocaster, Jaguar, Jazzmaster and P90). This allows the cancellation of “Hum” in the intermediate position between two microphones. This position becomes “Noiseless” (without noise, like the humbuckers), if and only if the direction of winding of the 2 microphones is reversed as well as the polarity, that is to say the orientation of the magnets. One must be in the North and the other in the South.

Our single coil pickup sets default to RWRP. Let us know in the “Comments” field during order confirmation if you do NOT want the pickups to be “RWRP”.

This information is very important if you want to install a Cecca microphone with a microphone from another brand (yes, yes, you have the right, I swear).

The winding and magnetic orientation directions we use are the same as most major pickup brands.

CW = Clock Wise -> wound clockwise.

CCW = Counter Clock Wise -> wound counterclockwise.

• P90 Bridge pickups are wound CW and NORD upwards
• P90 Neck pickups are wound CCW and SUD upwards
• Stratocaster neck and bridge pickups are wound CW and SUD upwards
• Mid Stratocaster pickups are wound CCW and NORD upwards
• The humbucking are CW and screw (1st coil, input) to the SOUTH stud coil (2nd coil, output) to the NORTH . In the case of double rows of screws, it should be noted that the input coil is to the SOUTH and the output coil is to the NORTH . This is the most commonly used configuration.
