Guitar Pickup Winder Auto-Traverse Machine MK III

Bring your pickup making to the next level and unlock the secret of the legendary vintage pickup sound! Whether you are an ambitious hobby builder or running a professional guitar repair shop: The Electrosoul Machines Auto-Traverse MK III takes the tedious manual wire guiding completely off your hands. Save valuable workshop time and achieve perfectly consistent results—bobbin after bobbin. Thanks to its plug-and-play workflow, there is no complicated programming required. Just set the limits via the potentiometers, hit start, and let the machine do the heavy lifting.

Key Features & Workshop Benefits

  • Ready for Workshop & Bench: Fully assembled, standalone unit housed in a durable enclosure built like a tank for daily workshop use.
  • Intuitive 4-Step Setup: Millimeter-precise coil width adjustment in seconds via two dedicated potentiometers (Left/Right limits) and a single Main Set button.
  • On-the-Fly Speed Control: Adjust the traverse feed speed via the SPEED knob seamlessly during operation to match your winder's RPM.
  • Rock-Solid Mechanical Mounting: Features pre-installed heavy-duty metal mounting brackets at the base. Easily bolt or screw the machine directly onto your wooden workbench or a dedicated baseplate to eliminate vibrations and ensure 100% precision at high winding speeds.
  • Industrial Vintage Aesthetics: Stunning boutique bench-ready enclosure featuring a physical heavy-duty toggle power switch, an analog red power indicator light, and classic embossed labeling.

The Highlight: True Scatter Winding

With a simple press of a button, you can activate the integrated Scatter Winding Feature on your Autotraverse Machine. Instead of layering the wire in a rigid, robotically perfect pattern, the built-in random algorithm simulates the natural and random irregularities of golden-era hand-winding. By constantly shifting the turnaround points and microscopic feed speeds, the pickup's internal distributed capacitance can be significantly reduced.

Technical Specs & Power Requirements

  • Drive System: Precision servo-actuated wire guide.
  • Controls: 3x Potentiometers (Left Limit, Right Limit, Speed), 1x Main SET Mode Button, 1x SCATTER Winding Toggle Button.
  • Power Supply: Standard 9V DC connection (5.5mm x 2.1mm socket, CENTER PIN POSITIVE! Works with standard 1A power bricks). Please note: This is center-positive. Do not use standard center-negative guitar pedal adapters.
  • 100% Plug-and-Play: Matching Premium Power Supply Included! No need to hunt down special adapters. Because the MK III utilizes a high-stability Center Pin Positive circuit, we include the exact matching, bench-tested 9V DC power supply right in the box!
  • Condition: Brand new, fully assembled, programmed, and rigorously bench-tested.
