In the early 70s, Bill Bartolini leveraged his deep knowledge of acoustics to create pickups that produce the most natural, musical voice from the instrument. He added shielding to block radio signals and noise. He also developed a method of sealing, isolating and stabilizing the coils so they could be encapsulated in epoxy to eliminate microphonics the nasty noise you get when you touch typical pickups.
