Pickups are at the heart of great electric and acoustic/electric tone. There are literally hundreds of pickup manufacturers out there claiming to have the "holy grail" when it comes to ultimate tone. Fortunately, we have selected a small but powerful group of pickup artisans who truly understand how to achieve the ultimate tone. These manufacturers have developed their product lines for real world applications through feedback from professionals and "at home" tone nuts alike. We always stock a large inventory, but if you are looking for that something special, feel free to call us with your request. We love making customers happy.
This Fralin Split-Jazz Bass Bridge Pickup is the perfect fix for noisy single coil positions on basses. A set of these split coils cleans up the 60-cycle hum that jumps out when you roll back the volume of one pickup on any standard Jazz Bass. If you've been wanting cleaner tones from soloed positions, look no further. This pickup makes a perfect P-J set when paired with the Fralin P-Bass Pickup.
"I feel that the Fralin bass pickups have a far superior frequency response (i.e. the volume doesn't drop off in the higher frequencies up the neck) than any stock pickups." - Matthew K.

This Fralin Blues Special Tele Neck Pickup is one of our go-to pickups and one of the reasons we love Fralin. Compared to the stock set, Lindy winds these 5% hotter with a polynylon wire instead of a plain enamel wire. This means a thicker, fuller tone that has more output and midrange than a stock Tele neck. These pickups also have less of an edge to them, making them a little easier on the ears if the stock Tele twang isn't your thing. No cover.

This Fralin Twangmaster 9200 Pickup is a split single coil with a nickel humbucker cover, and is an amazing bridge pickup. The non-adjustable Alnico V rod pole pieces add even more clarity than the P92s, and because of the split design they are completely silent of 60-cycle hum. Lindy uses this exact pickup in the bridge position of one of his own guitars.

This L.R. Baggs Para Acoustic D.I is one of my top 10 picks of all time. It makes any acoustic instrument equipped with an add on pickup sound so much better. It's extremely natural sounding, has plenty of control options, is small and best of all, inexpensive. I've owned some very pricey acoustic pre-amps in my days, but I would not trade them for this little box. No wonder the L.R. Baggs Para Acoustic D.I is a best seller year after year. - John F.
