The look and sound of foil pickups are back and more popular than ever! These pickups look terrific and work well on any custom project with amazing results. Lowriders are also a great choice if you are looking to improve/alter the sound from a guitar that you may already have. New pickups can open up new creative and sonic possibilities. Heck, build your own version of the infamous "Coodercaster"! Customers are also commenting on how great they are on their metal resonator guitars.
Lowrider pickups are a flat ferrite magnet, surface mount singlecoil pickup. They can also be mounted underneath with minimal modifications There are no pole pieces so string spacing is not an issue.
Lowriders measure just under 3/8" tall, making these easy to surface mount on many guitars. Please see blueprint in photo section for dimensions. Mount spacing is that of a standard Strat.No routing means only one very small hole for the pickup wire only. Pickups are underwound coming in around 5k ohms ( Don't let that reading fool you, the vintage tone is in there!). Character was important when designing these pickups.Each pickup has a vintage, hand made appearance.
Please message me after ordering if you would like the anodized colored foils as seen in the photo gallery. These pickups will also fit a mini humbucker rout or ring with a small amount of hand filing - please see blueprint in photo section for exact dimensions.
* For those who plan to surface mount, the pickup is exactly .34" tall. Please allow slight additional room for string movement.
I include surface mount screws with each order and will gladly tap threads and send you height adjustment screws if you prefer for undermounting applications - just message me after ordering.
Pickups are grounded to a steel base plate with shielded wire, giving a surprisingly quiet and unique single coil . There is a youtube clip below and also my first test run here:

Don’t forget that we have pickup router templates for the perfect fit available in my Reverb Store!!!
