Full Description

The Alnico 4 Classic is a matched humbucker set that is pick sensitive, rich in harmonics and with a tight bass.

When you crank the gain, these pickups saturate quickly and start to “sing” harmonically, with a vocal, flutey quality – the mark of a great PAF!

All AC4 pickups are fully wax potted to avoid microphonic feedback, and come with supplied with #3/48 screws, springs and an installation guide.

Available individually or as a set.  Four conductor wiring as standard on all models.

Nice chime!

Tonerider promised alnico 4 classic to be "pick sensitive, rich in harmonics and with a tight bass", that's what I wanted, and that's what I got! My amps don't have tight bass response, these help. Nickel covers look classic.
I also wanted a f-based set, and not all manufacturers offer this wider bridge pickup option.
I'm also very happy with support, had a question, and got a prompt and clear answer.

AlNiCo IV on Epiphone Les Paul Standard

Well! I've bought a set of AlNiCo IV for my LP Epi and this thing are a massive upgrade!! We play stoner rock with a touch of letal sometimes (something in between Mastodon, Clutch and Baroness with a southern flavour sometimes) and, folks, if you like those 1st, 3rd and 7th bluesy chords with a good amount of distorsion this pups, specially on the single coil mode, are cristal clear. I play with an Engl Screamer combo from my most metal days and there is no squealing noises beyond the natural hum on the hi-gain channel. The next I wanna change is the EMG on my Ibanez ART500 and the Generator set is the way to go with these one.
These pickups are a great vallue.

Clean to mean humbucker

Recently put Tonerider Alnico IV into bridge position on my Ibanez AR2000 prestige. Did not expect that I like Tonerider more than stock Ibanez Super 58 pickup that came with that guitar!
