Fantastic pickups. 80s sound as promised

Very good Pickups for a “modest” price!

There’s no need to explain: try them and you’ll see!
Nice and warm tone, high volume and beautyfull voice. You can play whatever you want with them; it’s only matter of how much you rise the volume pot on the guitar.

WOW! The Hidden Gems of Hard Rock Tone

I'm no stranger to trying out new pickups. As a professional musician, I've been through my fair share of pickups to find the ones that work best for my playing. Recently, I stumbled across the Tonerider Panama pickups (why are they not talked about more often???!!!) and I'm ecstatic that I did. I was on the hunt for a set of pickups for my Sterling Luke guitar, and after being impressed by some online clips, I decided to take the plunge. Let me tell you, these pickups did not disappoint!

From the moment I plugged in, I was blown away. Punchy, crisp, defined - and oh, that tone! It's like they bottled up the essence of hard rock and hair metal and crammed it into these pickups. The Panamas deliver everything I was looking for and then some. But here's the kicker - they're not just one-trick ponies. Clean them up, and they sing with a clarity that'll make your jaw drop. Flip them into split coil mode, and suddenly you're swimming in a sea of twangy, single-coil goodness that's simply sumptuous!

Of course, when you pair these bad boys with a cranked Marshall or Soldano, that's when they truly come alive. It's like they were born to breathe fire, yet they still maintain impeccable note separation and definition when playing chords. Even the neck pickup - often the Achilles' heel in lesser sets - shines with brightness and articulation. I absolutely love how it doesn't mush the notes together, instead offering crystal-clear definition that'll make your solos soar.

I'm beyond thrilled with the Tonerider Panamas. They've given my guitar a new lease on life, handling everything from face-melting riffs to sparkly clean passages with equal aplomb. If you're curious to hear these tone monsters in action, I used my Luke on this video which shows what they can do. Trust me, your ears will thank you! Check it out here:

In short, if you're on the hunt for pickups that can nail that classic hard rock sound while still offering versatility and clarity, look no further. The Tonerider Panamas are the secret weapon your guitar has been begging for. Don't sleep on these - they might just be the last pickups you'll ever need!
