Stock pickups: built for multiscale clarity and real-world versatility
The Hot Rock and De La Creme pairing covers serious ground. A tight, confident bridge voice for modern rhythm work, and a neck tone that stays smooth and musical for leads and cleans. The 5-way blade makes the in-between positions genuinely worth using.
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 lows tight and controlled — exactly what you want when you're pushing multiscale tuning. It stays defined under gain and keeps palm-mutes locked in without getting loose or fizzy.
Modern rock and metal rhythm, tight palm-mutes, punchy leads, and anything that needs to cut through a dense mix.
Driving mids, controlled lows, and a forward, immediate feel that holds its shape as gain increases.
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. Pairs with the Hot Rock naturally.
Melodic neck leads, clean passages, warm rock solos, and smooth rhythm textures.
Sweet, open neck tone with musical mids and a smooth top end. Clear without sounding thin, and warm without getting muddy.
The Run 17 Headless Goliath GTR blends ergonomic comfort, aggressive tone, and modern hardware, built to handle everything from studio precision to stage punishment.
