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 suppl

Tonerider Alnico 4 Classic
I bought these in order to change the tone (and I guess, personality) of my PRS SE Tremonti. Such a wonderful guitar to play, I decided on tonal variation rather than swap/sell a guitar that I love playing. And the fact that the creamy white colour gives the guitar a new look by rather matching the binding rather than melding into the black body as did the originals was a bonus I hadn't thought about initially. The pickups were dispensed quickly at a decent price and were here in Sydney quickly. Thank you

Great Value for Price
These pickups are rich in tone and really sweet as a set. I often use the as my neck pickup and pair it with the Alnico II Classic Bridge pickup for an even more complete sound. They also split to single coil easily with good effect.

Very satisfied
Changed EMG 89 pickups which I previously mouted in an old Ibanez 520EX. Now the sound is bright and much more clear. Perfect choice for me.
