Mercury 60 FC — Where Touch Shapes the Sound

The Mercury 60 FC is built for players who listen as much as they play.
It’s a single-coil voice designed not to push harder, but to reveal more—especially in clean tones.

Rather than changing volume, the Mercury 60 FC lets dynamics change character.

Clean Tone, Shaped by Your Hands

Through a clean amp, the Mercury 60 FC stays open and uncompressed.
Play softly, and the sound remains light and transparent.
Dig in, and the tone gains body, texture, and presence—without simply getting louder.

Slow, broken chords reveal what makes it different.
By varying the attack on the root string, the player can shape how the chord resonates in the space—how long it lingers, how the overtones bloom, and how the decay feels in the room.

It’s not about sustain or output.
It’s about control.


A Voice That Breathes

High end stays airy and smooth, letting light in without edge.

Midrange shifts with touch, revealing different harmonic colors at different intensities.

Low end supports the sound without weighing it down.


Each position feels connected, like different perspectives of the same voice—never a different instrument.


For Players Who Value Space and Detail

The Mercury 60 FC isn’t designed to impress at first strike.
It’s designed to reward listening.

A pickup for players who shape tone with intention,
and know that in clean playing, the smallest movements make the biggest difference.
