Tonerider is a UK-based pickup manufacturer founded in 2003, headquartered in Canterbury, Kent, with manufacturing in Shenzhen, China and US distribution handled from Minneapolis. The company focuses on scatterwound electric guitar and bass pickups aimed at working musicians, offering vintage-styled and modern voicings at accessible price points.
Their catalog spans Stratocaster, Telecaster, humbucker, P90, and bass pickup designs. Notable product lines include the Rebel 90 (an Alnico 2 bar-magnet humbucker-sized P90), the Alnico IV Classics humbucker set, the City Limits and Pure Vintage Strat sets, the Hot Classics Tele set, the hum-cancelling Apex series, and the Birmingham coil-split humbucker. On the bass side, Tonerider offers the Classic P, Classic J, and overwound Duke P pickups.
Tonerider's pickups are widely used in partscasters, guitar kits, and budget-to-mid-tier builds, and are stocked by third-party retailers such as MacDaddy Music, BYOGuitar, and ObsidianWire. The brand has developed a reputation within DIY guitar-building and modding communities for offering boutique-style tones at prices well below traditional boutique pickup makers.
Tonerider has 9 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Electric Guitar Pickups.
