Patented Stack Plus design with an overwound vintage tone, slightly hotter than the Classic Stack Plus. Recommended for blues, rock, pop, and classic rock. Use in any position. Try it in the bridge with a Classic Stack Plus middle and another Vintage Hot Stack Plus in the neck for a punched up Strat tone, or in the neck & middle with a Hot Stack Plus bridge for the ultimate rock strat. Three-conductor cable allows splitting for true single coil mode. When three Stack Plus pickups are all split, the middle pickup is RW/RP allowing hum-cancellation when used with the neck or bridge pickup.

The EMG-SA pickup combines the attributes of the early Strat* sound but with an added midrange response and higher output, giving it “bell-like” ringing harmonics and increased sustain. One single Alnico bar magnet delivers classic overdrive with a smooth midrange distortion, while still retaining the familiar high-end of a single-coil pickup. These characteristics provide greater versatility than what is normally found in single-coil pickups. Favorites of Steve Lukather and David Gilmour just to name two, the EMG-SA is our most popular pickup for Stratocaster* type guitars

Our most popular single-coil for Strat®.
The hand-ground Alnico 5 magnets and moderate windings (Heavy Formvar® wire) yield a bright and punchy tone with vintage output. Perfect for players who need accurate traditional single-coil tone, especially with clean and mildly distorted amp settings. Compared to the APS-1, the SSL-1 has a more focused “bell” tone with a tighter bass response. Comes with waxed cloth hookup cable and vintage-style “keyed” bottom plate.

This pickup combines the same vintage coil design as the SSL-1, with hand ground rod Alnico 5 magnets of equal length raised above the flatwork. The flat magnet pattern provides the balanced field necessary for an even response using today’s strings (unwound “G”) and flatter neck radii. The more even output response is noticed when bending strings. Like the SSL-1, the pickup is clean and vintage-like with a bright “bell” tone that has a sharper attack characteristic compared to the APS-2. Comes with waxed cloth hookup cable and vintage-style “keyed” bottom plate.

The hand ground Alnico 2 magnets and moderate windings (Heavy Formvar® wire) yield a warm, sweet tone with more natural string vibration for great sustain. Players who get their distortion from the amp rather than the pickup love the APS-1. It allows them to back off the crunch and get beautiful clean tones with softer attack. Compared to the SSL-1, the APS-1 has a rounder sound with a spongier bass response. Comes with waxed cloth hookup cable and vintage-style “keyed” bottom plate.

LH and Reverse wound pickups are also available Please e-mail us for details

Recommended for blues, classic rock, garage, heavy rock, classic metal and nu-metal. More than twice the power of a traditional single-coil. The result is a fat, punchy sound; similar to a P-90. It’s clean at lower volumes and screamin’ when cranked. The hand polished, quarter-inch diameter magnets are matched with a powerful coil winding to deliver great sustain, making this one of our most popular single-coil pickups. Does not use a cover.

SSL 7 Quarter Pound staggered poles for strat
High output true single-coil. Recommended for blues, classic rock, garage, heavy rock, classic metal and nu-metal.
Similar tonality to the SSL-4 Quarter-Pound Flat but with a staggered magnet pattern. Like the SSL-4, the hand polished, quarter-inch diameter magnets are matched with a powerful coil winding to deliver great sustain. Does not use a cover.

High output true single-coil for warm instruments. Perfect for Texas blues rock, classic rock and heavy rock.
Though it looks like the SSL-1 and has that distinct vintage tone, the SSL-5’s over-wound coil yields higher output, more sustain and great harmonics. The result is a pickup that rocks hard and cuts through the mix, but cleans up nicely when you back off the volume. Includes white cover.

Beefed up true single-coil for warm instruments.
Perfect for Texas blues rock, classic rock and heavy rock.
This pickup combines the same coil design as
the SSL-5, with hand ground rod Alnico 5 magnets of equal
length raised above the flatwork. The flat magnet pattern
provides the balanced field necessary for an even response
using today’s strings (unwound “G”) and flatter neck radii.
The more even output response is noticed when bending
strings. Like the SSL-5, the pickup is powerful and present,
great for over-driven tones. Includes white cover.

This is the next step up from the SSL-5 and SSL-6 with more sustain, fullness, and output – and less treble response. The raised flat Alnico 5 pole pieces are taller for a stronger and deeper magnetic field. Extra coil windings provide extra power making this pickup great for heavier music styles. White cover included.

High output single-coil-size “rails” humbucker.
Great for classic rock, garage, punk, heavy rock, thrash, classic metal and nu-metal.
One of the highest output and most popular pickups made. The two thin blades, strong ceramic magnet and powerful coil windings give you the incredible sustain and a fat, full sound that’s needed for playing heavier rock music. This pickup responds to the subtlest finger movements. Comes with four-conductor hookup cable.

Single-coil-sized “rails” humbucker with the sound of a vintage Strat®. Perfect for country, pop, surf, rockabilly, blues, ska and classic rock.
Vintage Rails use a unique split rail, twin coil design and special (parallel) wiring to achieve true, vintage, single-coil tone without hum. The sound is clean, clear and bright, with all of the “quack” you love in the notch positions. Though tonally similar to Duckbuckers, the rails design eliminates any potential dropout in string bending. Comes with four-conductor cable

Smooth and bluesy single-coil-sized “rails” humbucker. Recommended for blues, classic rock, jazz-rock fusion, heavy rock and aggressive instrumental rock.
Created by popular demand, Cool Rails™ use the same twin coil design as our Hot Rails™, but are wound to produce a clearer, brighter, and more dynamic sound. Hotter and louder than both the Vintage Staggered (SSL-1) Hot Stack® (STK-S2) pickups, Cool Rails are for players who need a louder, punchier, and fatter single-coil sound. Comes with four-conductor hookup cable.

P.A.F.-voiced single-coil-sized humbucker.
Great for country, jazz, blues, funk, classic rock and heavy rock.
This little brute was designed to impart the warm, smooth tone of an old Patent Applied For humbucker in a direct replacement, single-coil size. It possesses an even, dynamic response, and its adjustable pole pieces allow the guitarist to fine tune the string balance and dial in just the right amount of punch. Compared to the JB Jr., it has less output and more upper-mids. Comes with four-conductor hookup cable.

Vintage output single-coil-sized humbucker. Excellent for country, pop, surf, rockabilly, blues, ska and classic rock.
Using a design and a voicing based on Vintage Rails™, Duckbuckers incorporate six fully adjustable pole pieces together with a unique, split blade design. You get all the warm tone, cool output, and outrageous “quack” of a vintage Strat® pickup, but no hum. Though tonally similar to Vintage Rails, the mini pole piece design behaves more like a traditional pickup when string-bending. Comes with four-conductor cable.

Moderate output single-coil-sized humbucker. Great for classic rock, jazz-rock fusion, heavy rock and aggressive instrumental rock. Like its big brother the Screamin’ Demon™ humbucker, this li’l savage combines a big, open sound with just a subtle hint of “glass.” George asked for a pickup that could scream and provide rich harmonics, but would clean up when he backed it off. Using a unique slotted and Allen head screw combination that gives each coil a slightly different magnetic field, the tone is big and percussive without being too harsh. Comes with four-conductor hookup cable

SJBJ-1 jb jr. for Neck/Bridge Black or White
High output single-coil-size “rails” humbucker. Great for everything from heavy blues to heavy metal.
This twin coil design pickup gives you the character of our popular JB™ model humbucker in a single-coil size. Its adjustable pole pieces more closely emulate the magnetic field of a full size humbucker and allow you to fine tune the balance of your strings. You can expect great harmonics and a sweet high-end. Compared to Hot Rails, the output is reduced and there’s more treble response. Comes with four-conductor hookup cable.

Original stacked humbucker design removes hum and preserves traditional Strat® tone. Recommended for country, pop, surf, rockabilly, blues, ska and classic rock.
Time-tested alnico magnet design removes 60-cycle hum, but leaves the great tone of a classic Strat®. Comes with four-conductor hookup

STK-S4 Classic Stack Plus
New patent applied for design to remove hum and preserve traditional single coil tone. Recommended for country, pop, surf, rockabilly, blues, ska and classic rock.
Revolutionary design injects tunable “negative hum” into the pickup circuit. Each unit is individually factory pre-tuned to offer the optimal traditional single coil sound with no hum.
For all well-balanced instruments. Works equally well with maple and rosewood fingerboards.
Three-conductor cable allows splitting for true single coil mode. When three STK-S4s are all split, the middle pickup is RW/RP allowing hum-cancellation when used with the neck or bridge pickup.
