Product details

A reproduction of earliest strat tones, but with some modern updates.

Like some original 1954 and 1955 Strat pickups, the Surfari set from Tonerider pickups are made with Alnico III magnets – offering nice sustain and a bright, warm, compressed attack. For players who like unrivalled clarity and brightness and great dynamics the Surfari set is a great match. We’ve been privileged to have found a great following for the Surfari sets among the Hank Marvin fans – from Midnight to Apache – this set will get you very close to one of the “Holy Grail sounds from guitar history.

Not what i was expecting

I have ben using Northwest Guitars for years, top service, I have absolutely no problem with Northwest Guitars. However the Tonerider Surfari P/u's are not the holy grail of 50's Stratocaster sound in fact I thought they were rather poor and not up to the hype I have never heard a 50's early 60 Strat sound quite as bad as this,

Wipeout

These pickups sound amazing, I've never really played 50s style pickups or tonerider till these but I love them. They're so jangly and chimey, they also seem a lot clearer and brighter than the 60s style strat pickups I've got, which are mostly fender ones. If you're considering tonerider go for it, you won't be disappointed.
