Description

Edit description

Step into the golden era of sound with the Tonerider Classic Blues electric guitar pickups. Designed to capture the essence of the late 60s, this set revives the soul-stirring tones that defined a musical generation. Crafted with Alnico V magnets, these pickups provide a punchy presence and dynamic attack, ensuring your guitar cuts through the mix with vibrancy and clarity. The Modified Vintage Stagger polepiece magnet array offers impeccable string-to-string balance, making these pickups an ideal choice for a wide range of guitar necks.

The Classic Blues pickups deliver the hotter strat tones iconic to the 60s, with a calibrated wind for even volume across all five switch positions. This meticulous design guarantees a smoother, more balanced sound that is both rich and expressive. Cloaked in grey fiberboard flatwork, they don’t just sound the part, they look it too, bringing the vintage aesthetic to life.

Whether you're diving into searing solos or laying down rhythmic grooves, the Classic Blues set delivers a fast attack and vintage clarity, all while maintaining that spanky edge. Perfect for musicians seeking the authentic "Greybottom" tone, these pickups are a testament to the timeless allure of classic blues music.

Key Features:

Alnico V magnets with Modified Vintage Stagger
Neck: 6.3k DCR, Mid: 6.4k DCR, Bridge: 7.0k DCR
Grey fiberboard flatwork for authentic 60s look
Calibrated wind for balanced volume across all positions

Compatible with Fender-style covers (52.4mm, or 2 1/16in)
