The Suhr Thornbucker II bridge pickup is the latest evolution of Pete Thorn's signature Suhr pickup, designed for guitarists seeking superior performance and tone. This updated model features a new winding technique, a new magnet, and a refined signature tone. It retains the warmth and clarity of the original Thornbucker while adding more punch and a full-spectrum body, making it an excellent choice for both clean and overdriven sounds.
The Thornbucker II is a result of Pete Thorn's inspiration from the "hot PAF into a cranked plexi" tones popularised in the 70s and 80s. It uses a special winding with a few additional turns on the coil, reaching up to 9k, and is paired with an Alnico II magnet. This combination produces a warm top-end that blends seamlessly with high-gain, British-style amps, offering body and openness to high notes without excessive brightness.
This pickup is ideal for guitarists who demand warmth, power, sweetness, and clarity from their instrument. It provides a versatile tone that excels in a variety of musical genres. The Thornbucker II is available for order as a standalone product and is also featured in Pete Thorn's new Signature Standard HSS model.
For musicians who value high-quality components and meticulously crafted tone, the Suhr Thornbucker II is a standout choice that delivers professional-grade performance.
