Full Description
The Generator set delivers a high output Alnico 5 punch for rock and metal styles. A full-blooded, harmonically rich neck pickup delivers rock and blues tones with power to spare, while the high-output bridge pickup can take you from bluesy rock to screaming solos. Rolling off the volume knob reveals great, useable, clean tones.
All Generator models are fully wax potted to avoid microphonic feedback, and come supplied with #3/48 screws, springs and an installation guide.
Available individually or as a set. Four conductor wiring as standard on all models.

Customer Reviews
The humbucker is just wonderful, sounds so vintage and warm, at a very affordable price. Totally recommended!
I needed a higher output bridge pickup for my Les Paul Classic Lite, as the standard '57 Gibson pickup wasn't giving me the punch and clarity when soloing. This Tonerider Generator pickup gives me the gain and clarity that was missing from the guitar. I got it with an aged nickel cover and it's a perfect match to the Gibson neck pickup. I'm delighted with the result and I highly recommend these pickups as they are equally as good as some of the more famous brands that cost twice the price.
Great sounding neck pickup, full but not muddy. Lots of sustain.
Generator
As some other reviews mention, be ready to make some extra wood routing for the leg poles or to cut and file the provided screws a little if you plan to direct mount - but I assure you it will be worth the small trouble! These Generators sound AWESOME for how inexpensive they are. Build quality is top notch, same as other Tonerider pickups I had the pleasure of trying out. Super recommended!
