Introducing the "Wizz Yaya Set" -  a tribute to the golden era of The Rolling Stones and the searing, sophisticated playing of the one and only Mick Taylor. Revered for his expressive phrasing, slide mastery, and melodic instincts, Taylor brought a refined yet explosive edge to the Stones during their most creatively potent years - from "Let It Bleed" through "Exile on Main St."
At the heart of Mick Taylor’s iconic tone was his favored Unbigsbied 1958 Les Paul Standard, outfitted with unique humbuckers that were articulate, clear, and dynamic enough to keep up with his jaw-dropping improvisation. That tone-lyrical, biting, and hauntingly fluid-became a signature sound of the early '70s Stones, whether wailing on “Can’t You Hear Me Knocking” or weaving golden leads through "Time Waits for No One."
Wizz Yayas is our answer to the question: what if you could bottle that tone and make it your own? Built with Alnico II magnets for smooth attack and vintage warmth, and wound to echo the clarity and midrange honk of early '60s PAFs, the neck pickup sits around 7.3K while the bridge pushes a touch hotter at 7.9K-perfect for pushing your amp into creamy, singing sustain without sacrificing that all important touch sensitivity.
Our Yayas are built not just to sound great, but to respond to you. Roll off the tone for a syrupy slide voice, dig in for bite, or let it bloom on a clean amp-every nuance, every bend, every whisper is faithfully translated. We all know Mick kept his Marshall hidden behind that wall of Ampeg Stacks but, honestly, these pups sound equally killer through either!
These aren’t just pickups-they’re a gateway to a sound that shaped rock history. From Sticky Fingers swagger to the haunting jams of Exile, Mick Taylor helped define what a Les Paul could be in the right hands. Now it’s your turn.
Plug in. Lean in. Let your leads breathe.
With Wizz Yaya Tones, you’re not just chasing the sound-you’re carrying it forward.
