Stock pickups: the tone you're buying

Hot Rock / Bridge
Humbucker / AlNiCo 8 / 13.4k

A moderate to high output humbucker designed for blues, rock, punk, and metal. Overwound mismatched coils drive the front end of your amp hard, with the AlNiCo 8 magnet keeping the lows tight and controlled. It stays defined under gain and holds its place in a dense mix without getting loose or fizzy.

Best for

Hard rock, punk, metal, modern rock, tight rhythm, aggressive pick attack, and big chorus tones.

What you'll hear

Bold mids, tight punch, and output that makes the amp feel immediate and reactive.

De La Creme / Neck
Humbucker / AlNiCo 2 / 8.0k

A PAF-voiced neck pickup with a little more output than a traditional old-school wind. Sweet singing lead tones, clean rhythm clarity, and coil-splitting that opens up single-coil voices you wouldn't expect from a humbucker. The inspiration when winding this one? The intro to Sweet Child of Mine. That says everything about where it sits tonally.

Best for

Clean passages, bluesy neck leads, warm rock solos, and PAF-voiced neck tones that still cut.

What you'll hear

Sweet, open neck voice with smooth highs and musical mids, expressive without getting muddy.

Why this pairing is deliberate: a bridge pickup that drives and bites, and a neck pickup that stays sweet and musical, giving you two genuinely different voices plus a middle position that's actually useful.
⚙️ Precision. Power. Performance.
The Hype GTR Standard Scale combines world-class craftsmanship with bold tone and reliability, built to perform night after night.
