FLEOR Alnico 2 Humbucker Pickup 7-8K Electric Guitar Pickup Neck Humbucker, Black

I've used Fleor pickups in a number of guitars, mostly their hotrails mini humbuckers, and they sound nice and fat and work well with Blackstar (HT40 MkII), Marshall (JCM2000 DSL 50 watt head and 1960A 4x12 stereo cabinet) and Boogie (F50 and Triple Rectifier 150 watt half stack) tube amps, and through an Orange CR130, so that pretty much covers the amps we use on a regular basis, and we have line 6 and fender amps that I haven't tried them on. This particular set fell upon misfortune when a stripped mounting screw couldn't be removed and lost one of it's dog ears to the battle. Fortunately, I also wind some of my own pickups and have back plates in stock and was able to very easily remove the coils from the damaged backplate and transfer them to the new one, upgrading it to a larger AlNiCo 5 magnet bar in the process. It's still metering at 7.91k Ohms, and with a higher grade and stronger magnet bar, it should have more of a punchy, classic tone. Fleor are a good value for the money and I can't wait to hear this one. Also waiting for a set of their AlNiCo 5 PAF style humbuckers with the single wire conductor Gavitt wire for a Flying V project that should be interesting.

I have been searching for years for a humbucker that sounds as good as my Gibson '57 Classic Plus and this is it. Also sounds really similar to my Seymour Duncan Pearly Gates pickup. Apparently, I must like the Alnico II sound, because all my favorite humbuckers use that type of magnet. I purchased two humbuckers to install in one of my strats in an HH configuration. I was so pleased with the bridge humbucker that I bought another bridge humbucker to install in an HSS configured strat. These pickups are more than worth the money. I highly recommend these pickups.

I put this in the bridge position of a super-cheap Tele knock-off with a p90 in the neck. I think it gives me a nice, twangy quack in that guitar, close to what I'd expect from a good Tele bridge pickup, and it blends nicely with the p90 in the middle position. There's no provided wiring diagram, so I had to do some researching and guessing about which of the five wires went where. In my first wiring attempt, it was out of phase with the neck pickup. I do wish it had more complexity in the low-mids, maybe a bit warmer (I used a .022 cap on it--might do a higher value if I ever open it up again). Overall, I'm satisfied with the sound and quality for the price paid.

These pickups are made by Artec of Korea, the world's largest manufacturer of guitar pickups. If you have played a medium to low-priced guitar made by anyone, even the 'big three', chances are you have used Artec pickups. These Alinco 2 pickups are warm, smooth, and focused, perfect for jazz, blues, pop, soft rock, etc. They can be overdriven into hard rock/metal range and will perform well. But like any quality Alnico 2 pickup, they shine when played au naturel. Update: Recently sat down with a professional guitarist. She had a new Gibson Les Paul Custom 50s with a Burstbucker 1 Alnico 2 in the neck and a Burstbucker 2 Alnico 2 in the bridge position, as it came from Gibson. In a side-by-side comparison with the Gibson Les Paul and the Les Paul partscaster I built utilizing these pickups, it was a dead heat. The Fleor pickups matched the Gibsons in tone, depth, warmth, strength, output, and every other comparison, clean and dirty. I was amazed. I knew these were outstanding pickups, but wow. But the big surprise came when she said she would have no problem taking my partscaster into the studio. The Fleors sounded that good.

I put these into a chibson les paul that I've had for years to try and get a budget Slash APH-1/2 sound. These don't sound as good as the much much more expensive seymour duncans, but they sound SERIOUSLY better than the stock ceramic pickups that came in the guitar. They have a ton of personality and a very clear and singsongy sound. They get nice and crunchy and have a really dynamic sound that I didn't feel like the stock pickups did. I will definitely remember Fleor in the future when I go pickup shopping.

Oh man, I've wanted to try alnico pups for a while but didn't want to pay $200 for Seymours. Gave these a shot, what the heck $20 - $30 is no big deal. Worth a shot. Hit the jackpot imo. The more I use these, the more I love them. There is something about them I can't explain properly. A certain nuance to the responsiveness to your picking I guess. They just sound musical, if that makes any sense. Maybe it's a compression thing? The previous pickups sounded fine tonewise but there is a certain stiffness to the sound that makes them sound lifeless. That's the best I can do to describe the difference. Just bending a note and listening to the sound of the note being bent or using vibrato on a sustained note. Maybe it's just a normal alnico thing vs ceramic, I don't know. I just love them. I find myself playing more and actually relishing the sound of each note and paying attention to my picking dynamics. Yeah, maybe the other pickups were just horrible and make these seem better (to me) than they really are. All I know is that I don't see myself swapping these out. As for the negative, eh maybe the lows are a little muddy and don't pack the punch that the previous pickups had. To me that's extremely minor and well worth the trade-off. Also, I play mostly clean or with light overdrive so I don't know how they fare in high gain situations.

Can't beat the price, and for my tastes in sound, these were a nice improvement over the 85/15S that came in my PRS SE CE 24. Set up the coil split without resistors, which is something I might change as you do get a bit of reduced volume when you switch, but they sound nice in single coil mode. I play mostly fairly clean setting, and just on the edge of gain driven distortion, For how I play they sound great.

Suenan muy bien. Si se escucha un tono muy vintage rockero. La verdad me gustó más que el sonido de las pastillas originales de mi Les Paul Classic.

これ、音がいい。価格的には有り得ない音の良さ。あと、タップが使える音。HSH配列でミックス時にオートタップになる配線にしてますが、ちゃんとシングルのミックス音になります。お勧め。

I'm a guitar tech with 30 years experience and I can't believe i'm saying this but... Sorry Gibson... These sound as good as Burstbuckers!!! For 1/10th the price! Wanna waste your money 400$ pickups... go right ahead...! Installed these in a Fesley FLP350... The value in this is unbelievable!!

コストパフォーマンスのよいPUです。 今までアルニコ５かセラミックマグネットのPUしか使用していませんでした。 パワーはアルニコ５に比べ落ちますが、ギターのボリウムを絞った時のクリアな 色気のある音⇔ボリウム全開時の元気な音とボリウム調整で音色を変化させる事が 出来るよいPUです。 ねじ式のポールピースが約19.5㎜と長い為、フロントＰＵ部のざぐりが浅いギターだと ポールピースの足がボディーに干渉し、ＰＵを下げれない場合があると思います。 私はポールピースねじを削り、約16㎜にしました【画像 参照】

Esta es una humbucker 'todo terreno'; la puedes usar en el cuello / mástil y sonará con mucha autoridad; en el puente brillará como las mejores. La construcción se ve mejor que las de la misma marca. El cableado es: rojo y blanco: split; negro y tierra juntos: verde: hot. Silenciosa y versátil. No le pide nada a las 'de marca'.
