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.

Customer Reviews
Great quality pickups. Tonerider goes into all my builds...
wired a 1 meg tone pot to the neck pickup after hearing some demos online of it sounding a little woofy/muddy and it sounds great. the bridge is excellent.
faultless set as usual tonerider!
I’ve tried all the big brands, these are great, at a fraction of the cost
This pickup put some new life into my old Epiphone sg g400. It really has that PAF sound, I love it!
I now have two of these sets in my guitars (both the zebra and the double cream) - I was looking for a set of alnico IV hum buckers for a while, and I already new tone rider quality from my Strat pickups and from my tele. These have a great vintage output and the clarity is all there. Best pickups at the price point and punching way above the price tag. One of the sets is in a LP and the other in a super Strat with them split. Couldn't be happier with them, and ToneRider never ceases to amaze me with the quality.
