Guitar Pickups

Whether you prefer the twangy, cutting tone of a single-coil, the rich warmth of a humbucker or the growling overdrive that only a P90 can provide, you'll find what you're looking for in this section. Page after page, you'll come across guitar pickups from top names like DiMarzio, EMG, Gibson and Seymour Duncan. You'll even discover guitar pickups designed specifically for amplifying acoustic guitars - so if you're a singer-songwriter who plans on hitting the festival circuit, you've definitely come to the right place.

So, what brings you here? Are you building a guitar from scratch or customizing your current axe? Either way, the perfect guitar pickup (or pickups) for you is waiting here. Of course, you can speed up your search by taking a few factors into consideration, including your current budget, and asking yourself, "what kind of guitar sound do I want?'. If you play a Gibson Les Paul and want a rich vintage tone with a slightly high output, look no further than the Gibson '57 Classic Plus Pickup. Featuring vintage enamel-coated wire, a special Alnico II magnet and nickel-plated pole pieces, this top-rated bridge position pickup makes a perfect companion to the '57 Classic.

As you can imagine, Strat enthusiasts have plenty of guitar pickups to choose from here as well, and the DiMarzio Area Strat Pickup Set brings together a collection of authentic Strat tones while reducing noise. Featuring The Area '58 in the neck, The Area '67 in the middle and The Area '61 in the bridge, playing each of these pickups is like taking a tone time machine through classic Strat eras.

Now for all you acoustic strummers and pluckers, there's no end in sight to the top-rated and best-selling options you have to choose from. For starters, there's the Seymour Duncan Wooden HC Ham-Canceling Soundhole Pickup. It incorporates Stack technology for a full-bodied tone without noise or hum and fits any acoustic guitar with a Soundhole diameter of 3.85" to 4.1". Or, turn your attention to the LR Baggs Anthem Tru-Mic Acoustic Microphone/Piezo Pickup System. Using Tru-Mic technology, this discrete mic/pickup system allows you to adjust for the perfect blend of your guitar's natural tone.

And to say that we didn't even scratch the surface would be an understatement. Honestly, it would take seemingly forever to mention every guitar pickup here, so at this point we'll leave you to do some browsing of your own. From Tele and Strat pickups to soapbars, 7+ string pickups and even prewired pickguards, you've just hit the jackpot when it comes to guitar pickups.
