Stock pickups: Hot Rock and Old School
The Hot Rock and Old School pairing gives the TX Shark a real gear shift across the 5-way blade. A tight, confident bridge voice for modern rhythm work, and a single-coil neck that keeps things open, clear, and genuinely different from the bridge position.
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.
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 low output single coil voiced for clean jazz and blues tone. Sweet singing lead tones and clean rhythm clarity that gives the TX Shark a genuine second character when you move up the blade. The AlNiCo 2 magnet keeps the tone warm and open, and the in-between positions on the 5-way add extra blended voices that are genuinely worth using.
Cleans, articulate melodic leads, warm expressive solos, and dynamic playing that responds to pick attack.
Open, articulate single coil tone with sweet highs and musical mids, clear and airy without the thickness of a humbucker.
Limited colours, premium tonewoods, and the kind of detail that makes this run worth securing early.
