Firepower

I was contemplating buying these pickups because they have very high output, and I initially thought they would only be suitable for metal. However, they can handle everything, from the cleanest tones to the dirtiest. Funk, blues, rock, metal, and jazz. with the right EQ tweaking, they can do it all. They can move from soft, smooth jazz to the most extreme form of metal while delivering excellent harmonics.

The build quality is outstanding. I installed them in my Squier alongside a middle City Limits pickup and made several modifications:

1. Series parallel switching for both the bridge and neck humbuckers
2. Coil splitting for both the bridge and neck humbuckers
3. An out of phase switch for positions 2 and 4

The result is perfect! the sound, the tightness, the crispness, and absolutely zero noise. They are as quiet as air.

I am very satisfied with these pickups and i absolutely recommended them. Thank you, Tonerider!

Recently installed the Firepower set in one of my guitars and OMG! They're loud, crisp and full! I love them! These will be my go-to pickup upgrades from now on. Definitely best for metal players, though.

I contacted Tonerider with some questions about these pickups, and they responded within minutes. When I placed my order, they were dispatched in only a couple of hours. I received them in under a week. And I'm in New Zealand, the opposite end of the world. Super impressed with Tonerider, and their pickups are equally as impressive. Very, very happy customer.

I have installed the Firepower bridge pickup in a Kramer with a floating tremolo that I prefer for metal and punk. It is paired with a Rebel 90 in the neck which is so clear and handles gain nicely. Having the Firepower in the bridge gives it some some real muscle, tight low-end, and retains excellent string definition and clarity, even with a lot of gain. I have wired in a series/parallel switch which was a good idea. The parallel setting on this provides a very nice single coil tone, goes well with the Rebel 90 in the neck. Their is no volume discrepancy between either setting, so the whole setup is nicely balanced, excellent value.
