SUHR PICKUP COLLECTIONS

THORNBUCKER

SUHR THORNBUCKER PICKUPS


Thornbucker pickups are born out of a desire to give guitarists a humbucking pickup set that has all of the best attributes of the coveted 50’s “patent applied for” style pickups… with none of the downsides.We have also included a few modern touches: four conductor wiring, a variety of spacings, and the consistency and quality that Suhr is known for.

From the outset, tone was our primary concern. We were inspired by Pete Thorn’s frustration with existing boutique pickups to create a pickup set that delivered clarity, versatility and soul. Pete came to us and said, “I have played many two-humbucker instruments that have failed to inspire. Many work great into a dirty amp, but try and play clean, or semi-dirty, especially in the neck or middle positions, and it is mud city! And if I switched mid-gig to a guitar with single coils, it was often like a different tonal universe, requiring adjustments to my amp and effects. It started to seem almost like the norm. And yet, my experience with great examples of vintage guitars taught me that it was indeed possible to get versatility, clarity, and inspiring clean and semi-dirty tones out of humbuckers.”

THORNBUCKER+


“We are happy to introduce the new Thornbucker + bridge pickup. It retains all the clarity, warmth, character, and mojo of the original Thornbuckers, and adds a bit more power and oomph. Great for players that like a slightly overwound PAF-type tone!”

“We’re overjoyed with the enthusiasm from players for the Thornbucker humbucking pickups! The pickups have been a resounding success, garnering praise for their extraordinary tone and balance. I’m truly honored and excited that so many guitarists are enjoying them as much as I do.”

– PETE THORN

BALANCE. WARMTH. CLARITY.


Through our experimentation with all the variables: magnets, wire, covers, and winds, we made countless prototypes and listened. Eventually we hit on the formula that captures all of the essence of the most coveted 50’s “patent applied for” style pickups. If you are a player searching for a product that captures all the subtleties, nuances and feel of a great vintage pickup, then Thornbuckers are the perfect pickup for you.

RAW NICKEL COVER


Adding a cover to a humbucker will always make it sound a little sweeter, knocking off a bit of top end. The raw nickel covers are the most transparent ones we’ve found. They sound very similar to the uncovered pickup, just a bit sweeter.

Please note that because raw nickel covers are not plated, over time they will develop a natural patina, much faster than a chrome plated cover.

ALDRICH

SUHR ALDRICH PICKUPS

The result of collaboration between John Suhr and rock guitarist extraordinaire Doug Aldrich, the Aldrich humbuckers are the ultimate high-output pickups for aggressive rock style of playing. The Aldrich bridge humbucker is now our highest output pickup but it oozes tone across its sound spectrum.

It’s big sounding yet focused and punchy in the mids and tight in the lows. You will never hear this pickup get flubby and undefined in the highest gain settings. The high-mids will cut through like the sharpest knife but the treble will be sweet and never grating on the ears. From chunky low-string metal riffing to screaming string bends in the high register, the Aldrich bridge humbucker covers them all while retaining the dynamics of your picking attack.

AVAILABLE IN BRIDGE AND NECK


The Doug Aldrich Neck humbucker is the perfect complement to the Aldrich bridge pickup. Carefully calibrated for the neck position, the Aldrich neck pickup is warm, clear with exceptional string-to-string balance. This is our highest output neck humbucker pickup but it never gets muddy or undefined.

SS Series Single Screw

SUHR SS HUMBUCKERS

Our most popular humbuckers. The SS, or single screw, series of pickups feature the classic, authentic combination of a single row of adjustable screw pole pieces, and a row of slug pole pieces. These pickups offer the warmth of a vintage humbucker with increased clarity and definition and range in output from vintage to hot.

SSV – BRIDGE AND NECK


The SSV has a broad sonic aperture with very little compression, making for a dynamic, vintage output humbucker. The SSV Neck is a versatile pickup that combines the warmth of a vintage humbucker with increased clarity and definition. The SSV Bridge is similar to the SSV neck in tone, but wound hotter for more output, increased sustain and a sweet midrange response.

 

SSH BRIDGE


The SSH bridges the gap between vintage and hot, providing strong output, pronounced mids that will push the front end of a tube amp, and sweet open-sounding vintage-style tonality.

 

SSV+ BRIDGE


The SSV+ is like a great vintage humbucker with an attitude. Brighter than the SSV, it provides the best attributes of highly sought-after vintage PAF-style pickups with the extra kick needed to cut through a dense mix, the SSV+ is superb for covering a wide range of genres.

SSH+ BRIDGE


A true high output humbucker, the SSH+ covers a broad musical base with musicality, punch, authority, and tone. The pickup exhibits excellent harmonic content, lots of midrange and a focused low end. Well suited for classic rock or metal.

DS Series Double screw

SUHR DS HUMBUCKERS

The DS, or double screw, series of pickups feature two rows of adjustable screw pole pieces. When compared to their SS (single screw) counterparts, the DS pickups have a natural roll off on the top end, making them richer, smoother, and more modern sounding.

DSV – BRIDGE AND NECK


The DSV has a broad sonic aperture with very little compression, making for a dynamic, vintage output humbucker. The DSV Neck is a versatile pickup that combines the warmth of a vintage humbucker with increased clarity and definition. The DSV Bridge is similar to the DSV neck in tone, but wound hotter for more output, increased sustain and a sweet midrange response.

The DSV is similar to our SSV pickup, but warmer and fatter with a smoother response to your picking attack.

DSV+ BRIDGE


The DSV+ is like a great vintage humbucker with an attitude. Brighter than the DSV, it provides the best attributes of highly sought-after vintage PAF-style pickups with the extra kick needed to cut through a dense mix, the DSV+ is superb for covering a wide range of genres without ever sounding to brash or harsh.

DSH BRIDGE


The DSH bridges the gap between vintage and hot, providing strong output, pronounced mids that will push the front end of a tube amp, and sweet open-sounding vintage-style tonality. Since it’s not quite as bright as the SSH, the focus shifts more towards the midrange, rounding out any hard edges.

 

DSH+ BRIDGE


A true high output humbucker, the DSH+ covers a broad musical base with musicality, punch, authority, and tone. The pickup exhibits excellent harmonic content, lots of midrange and a focused low end. Well suited for classic rock or metal. The DSH+ is our fattest sounding humbucker with the most midrange content.

ANDY WOOD SIGNATURE PICKUPS

Andy Wood has a great appreciation for vintage T-style instruments that possess a balance of woodiness and twang.

Utilizing a combination of plain enamel wire, identical winding techniques, and custom Alnico 5 magnets, the Woodshed Series pickups were born.
