Since i played guitar I've tried lots of pickups and the 2 stroke are among the best pickups i ever play.

You can clearly hear every notes when you do a solo and the neck pickup has a good balance of mid/bass/highs.

Also the pickups sounds good clean or with lots of distortion so you can use them on 80s metal and blues rock, on country rock they also sounds good.

And Kris always reply quickly to the site chat, excellent customer service !

I highly suggest this pickup !

I was looking for a new pickup for my project guitar, stumbled across these online and read all the reviews. Thought something locally made would be kinda' cool and unique for my project. Wired them in, plugged in the guitar, wasn't sure what to expect, and then all I can say is that I was amazed at the sound I was hearing! Turned my ok sounding guitar into a tone monster. Very happy with my purchase. Thank you!

I have a guitar I loved the neck and feel of the guitar, but was thinking about selling it as the pickups that came with it were, well, let’s just say lacking in tone, output and response to picking. Pretty much sucked!

I put the 66’s in and transformed the guitar into a beast! I am talking about getting exactly what I was looking for and more. When clean —nice rich clear on the neck and in the bridge, chimey and clean. Great for blues even jazz.

Now add some overdrive and you have great classic rock tone with individual string clarity still there and evident without muddiness. Through a VOX AC30, the bridge gives some nice chimey chords. Also, roll back the volume and they respond gradually and you can clean up things easily. You can also hear the articulation of picking technique and reaction to soft versus harder attack—even when playing clean.

Now, I didn’t expect this, but throw in some high gain from a Revv red channel or Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier and smooth distortion with the ability to still hear single note picking amongst a chord and ability to roll back the volume to clean it up a bit.

The sustain on single note solos from clean to heavy distortion is also great!

All in all these pickups are excellent and surpassed my hopes for rescuing this guitar from the local buy and sell listings.

Thanks again and I will definitely use your pickups in the future and recommend them to my fellow guitar players.

I’m really liking these very versatile pickups. I play many different styles and these work for all of them. I’m normally a single coil guy but wanted to try something different and no regrets at all. Thanks kris for the rush job as well.

Put a set of these in a AM original 50’s strat. Sound great. Really well made. Extremely happy i tried these.

Start to finish I am impressed with the communication and service. Exactly what I was looking for! Many thanks!

Replaced somewhat thin-sounding Gibson P90 bridge pickup with Pegcity P90 on my Les Paul Jr. (5% overwind with the Alnico 3 magnet). I wanted the same vintage character with a fuller-sounding pickup with much less sharpness in the high frequencies. Well, Kris delivered exactly what I wanted and made my guitar come alive! I no longer see a point in ordering pickups from big-name brands and paying double the price. Highly recommended!

I play a lot of instrumental surf music of the 60's, and these pickups (alnico 2) make my Squire Jaguar sound just like the recordings I like to mimic. Definitely would recommend them.

Sounds good, looks good too!

I really like my new ec-431 pickup, installed it i my esquire and did the eldred mod using 0.0047uf tone capcitor at the switch and Now my esquire is my #1 axe .that pickup is very versatile and i love the dynamic and its is very articulated and well balance you can go from clean To dirty tone by just rolling the volume if you like twangny stuff it Will do it no problem i am not a jazz player but this pickup can do it to. But for me its' when the amp start To break up and you get those great 70/80 dirty overdrive tone . Great pickup Thank's Pegcity

They look awesome but have yet to install them. The whole purchase experience was great and I can't wait to hear them

These are the best pickups I’ve ever owned. They revived my old tele. Sounds are great, almost no hum and they even brought the look of the guitar up a notch. The service was very good too. I got all the help I needed during selection and every need was accommodated. Couldn’t have been happier with the results.

Put this combo in my FrankenTele with 4 way pickup switch. Kickass sound. Well balanced tone when using both pickups. Very smooth bridge pickup without the brittle highs liquifying your ear drums. With pickups set to series via the 4 way switch, it makes for a great grungy lead sound. Highly recommend PegCity Puckups. Kris is very knowledgeable and very helpful. You can't go wrong with PegCity.

Installed a VS-61 Custom set in a G&L Legacy (Strat-style). Was very much hoping to get back to a vintage sounding, but versatile, single coil instrument - mission accomplished! Kris/Pegcity recommended Alnico 3 magnets with 42 awg Heavy Formvar wire, wax potted, reverse wound middle pickup, bridge pickup base plate, cream covers. It's a very special combination of pickups, surprisingly quiet as single coils go (it's hum-cancelling in positions 2 & 4). Beautiful warm to bright clean tones, funky "quack" middle positions, to exceptional overdriven timbres from blues-rock to jazz fusion and beyond. Also works very well with the G&L's P.T.B. system (passive treble and bass controls). Exceptionally pleased, and there's been myriad replacement designs in this instrument.

Installed this in a 1978 Les Paul Deluxe with the bridge position routed for a full-size humbucker (originally a mini-humbucker). A5 magnet, 9.2k output, 5.5h inductance, 42 awg poly coat wire, wax potted, nickel cover. This LP is a stable, heavy but great sounding instrument, and the 2-Stroke is a tremendous match with the neck pickup (still a mini-hum - see my Little Bucks review). Was looking for a design that highlighted the naturally articulate timbre of the guitar, while remaining true to the more vintage vibe of the instrument. The 2-Stroke pairs very well with the neck pickup for funkier, clean middle position sounds. Perhaps more importantly, it reacts to overdriven tones with great versatility, reacting musically to legato and staccato single note lines to dynamic chord voicing. Pairs very well straight into vintage style amps as well as myriad effect pedals. Super versatile choice.
