FLEOR Alnico 2 Humbucker Pickup 7-8K Electric Guitar Pickup Neck Humbucker, White

I've used Fleor pickups in a number of guitars, mostly their hotrails mini humbuckers, and they sound nice and fat and work well with Blackstar (HT40 MkII), Marshall (JCM2000 DSL 50 watt head and 1960A 4x12 stereo cabinet) and Boogie (F50 and Triple Rectifier 150 watt half stack) tube amps, and through an Orange CR130, so that pretty much covers the amps we use on a regular basis, and we have line 6 and fender amps that I haven't tried them on. This particular set fell upon misfortune when a stripped mounting screw couldn't be removed and lost one of it's dog ears to the battle. Fortunately, I also wind some of my own pickups and have back plates in stock and was able to very easily remove the coils from the damaged backplate and transfer them to the new one, upgrading it to a larger AlNiCo 5 magnet bar in the process. It's still metering at 7.91k Ohms, and with a higher grade and stronger magnet bar, it should have more of a punchy, classic tone. Fleor are a good value for the money and I can't wait to hear this one. Also waiting for a set of their AlNiCo 5 PAF style humbuckers with the single wire conductor Gavitt wire for a Flying V project that should be interesting.

I have been searching for years for a humbucker that sounds as good as my Gibson '57 Classic Plus and this is it. Also sounds really similar to my Seymour Duncan Pearly Gates pickup. Apparently, I must like the Alnico II sound, because all my favorite humbuckers use that type of magnet. I purchased two humbuckers to install in one of my strats in an HH configuration. I was so pleased with the bridge humbucker that I bought another bridge humbucker to install in an HSS configured strat. These pickups are more than worth the money. I highly recommend these pickups.

I definitely prefer Alnico 2 over 5. I am able to play ceramic too, but prefer the mellow sound of these Fleor Alnico 2 pickups. I already ordered another set.

I put this in the bridge position of a super-cheap Tele knock-off with a p90 in the neck. I think it gives me a nice, twangy quack in that guitar, close to what I'd expect from a good Tele bridge pickup, and it blends nicely with the p90 in the middle position. There's no provided wiring diagram, so I had to do some researching and guessing about which of the five wires went where. In my first wiring attempt, it was out of phase with the neck pickup. I do wish it had more complexity in the low-mids, maybe a bit warmer (I used a .022 cap on it--might do a higher value if I ever open it up again). Overall, I'm satisfied with the sound and quality for the price paid.

Updating review because I was unaware the differences between alnico 2 and ceramic pickups. I bought these alnico 2 pickups thinking they would sound good with heavy distortion but was wrong. I ended up removing these and getting a pair of ceramic fleor pickups. Much much better. I don’t care about sound like something from the 50’s. It’s 2026, ceramics are the way for me.

I put this pickup in a cheap Fesley HSS Strat I bought here on Amazon and man, what a difference it made! This humbucker hangs with the Seymour Duncan Trembucker in my American Fender Strat. Really impressive. I'm pretty fussy about tone and while I wasn't looking for the ultimate pickup on earth for a $180 guitar, I was hoping to like what I was getting without dropping a bunch of money in it. Mission Accomplished. Very satisfied with this.

These pickups are made by Artec of Korea, the world's largest manufacturer of guitar pickups. If you have played a medium to low-priced guitar made by anyone, even the 'big three', chances are you have used Artec pickups. These Alinco 2 pickups are warm, smooth, and focused, perfect for jazz, blues, pop, soft rock, etc. They can be overdriven into hard rock/metal range and will perform well. But like any quality Alnico 2 pickup, they shine when played au naturel. Update: Recently sat down with a professional guitarist. She had a new Gibson Les Paul Custom 50s with a Burstbucker 1 Alnico 2 in the neck and a Burstbucker 2 Alnico 2 in the bridge position, as it came from Gibson. In a side-by-side comparison with the Gibson Les Paul and the Les Paul partscaster I built utilizing these pickups, it was a dead heat. The Fleor pickups matched the Gibsons in tone, depth, warmth, strength, output, and every other comparison, clean and dirty. I was amazed. I knew these were outstanding pickups, but wow. But the big surprise came when she said she would have no problem taking my partscaster into the studio. The Fleors sounded that good.

Oh man, I've wanted to try alnico pups for a while but didn't want to pay $200 for Seymours. Gave these a shot, what the heck $20 - $30 is no big deal. Worth a shot. Hit the jackpot imo. The more I use these, the more I love them. There is something about them I can't explain properly. A certain nuance to the responsiveness to your picking I guess. They just sound musical, if that makes any sense. Maybe it's a compression thing? The previous pickups sounded fine tonewise but there is a certain stiffness to the sound that makes them sound lifeless. That's the best I can do to describe the difference. Just bending a note and listening to the sound of the note being bent or using vibrato on a sustained note. Maybe it's just a normal alnico thing vs ceramic, I don't know. I just love them. I find myself playing more and actually relishing the sound of each note and paying attention to my picking dynamics. Yeah, maybe the other pickups were just horrible and make these seem better (to me) than they really are. All I know is that I don't see myself swapping these out. As for the negative, eh maybe the lows are a little muddy and don't pack the punch that the previous pickups had. To me that's extremely minor and well worth the trade-off. Also, I play mostly clean or with light overdrive so I don't know how they fare in high gain situations.

Suenan muy bien. Si se escucha un tono muy vintage rockero. La verdad me gustó más que el sonido de las pastillas originales de mi Les Paul Classic.

1年ほど前、見た目とスペックと価格でポチったARIAのPE-700。 しかし、どうにも音が気に入らないので、結局他のギターばかり使ってしまい出番がなく、 このまま置いといてもしょうがないから売っちゃおうかなとも思いましたが、 それも悔しいのでPU交換を検討。 ディ〇ジオやダ〇カンは高いしなーと思って物色していると、やたら評価の高いコチラを発見。 これなら失敗しても値段的に諦めつくよね、と皆さんの評価を信じてポチり。 結果、まったく別物に生まれ変わりました。 ARIAが「温かみのあるサウンド」と推しているクラシックパワーは、ただモコモコしているだけでしたが、 コレは適度にエッジが立ち、かといってトレブリーでもなく、スッキリシャッキリしながらもハンバッカーの太さもあり、歪ませてコードを弾いてもグズグズにならず、低音弦のミュートバッキングもキレイな音です。 リードのロングトーンでは、自然に裏返ってハーモニクス音に変化していき、すんごい気持ちイイ。 さらに特筆すべきはクリーントーンです。特にコイルタップしたシングルトーンでは、ギターの材質を表現しているような、素直で澄んだクリーントーン。 売っちゃおうかと思っていたギターでしたが、1軍昇格確定です。皆さんありがとう！ ただ、格安のナゾPUだけあって配線仕様は表記がなく、袋に書いてある英文のHPを見ても商品紹介ばかりで説明が一切ないので、断線チェックを兼ねてテスターをあてて仕様を確認。写真に記載しましたがあくまでご参考です。 中〇製のため生産ロットや工場の都合で変わることもありそうなので、必ずご自身でご確認ください。 実際、amazonの商品説明写真と手元に届いたものでは、アースの結線が異なっていました。 購入時点では直列仕様でハンダ付けされているので、当然ながらパラで使う場合はバラしてください。

I'm a guitar tech with 30 years experience and I can't believe i'm saying this but... Sorry Gibson... These sound as good as Burstbuckers!!! For 1/10th the price! Wanna waste your money 400$ pickups... go right ahead...! Installed these in a Fesley FLP350... The value in this is unbelievable!!

Esta es una humbucker 'todo terreno'; la puedes usar en el cuello / mástil y sonará con mucha autoridad; en el puente brillará como las mejores. La construcción se ve mejor que las de la misma marca. El cableado es: rojo y blanco: split; negro y tierra juntos: verde: hot. Silenciosa y versátil. No le pide nada a las 'de marca'.

これ、音がいい。価格的には有り得ない音の良さ。あと、タップが使える音。HSH配列でミックス時にオートタップになる配線にしてますが、ちゃんとシングルのミックス音になります。お勧め。
