This is our high gain heavy saturation humbucker set. These high output coils are uniquely wound and powered by Alnico 8 magnets to deliver dynamic and clear note separation, remain tight in the low end for clear sound when picking fast or galloping, and the mids are full and balanced. Metal, doom, punk, hard rock, almost any style will sound great with a set of Widows. If you are in the need for some high output pickups you need not look any further. The Angry Widows are loud, in your face with a tonne of attitude. But they even have a softer side, providing classic sounding cleans with beautiful harmonics

A big thanks and much credit goes to Dusty “Roadz” Breton for his immense help with the final voicing and fine tuning of the Angry Widow humbuckers.

43awg wire for high resistance

Output: Neck 14.5k, Bridge 16.6k

Spacing: Neck 50mm, Bridge 52mm.

Wax potted for squeal free operation. Screws and springs supplied with pickups.

Love it!

100% recommend them. I got the Angry Widow bridge pickup. It sounds great and looks great as a bonus.

I am totally blown away by the versatility of this pickup. I bought it to replace a very high output ceramic pickup in my Kiesel guitar, which was good but much too low-end focused. The Angry Widow has a much better range, especially in the mid and mid high ranges. It is perfect for the heavy distorted sounds I like, you can hear every string clearly. It also sounds fantastic in lower gain and clean settings. The split coil sound is nice for cleaner strat like tones. The ability to customize for free and have it hand built in a week is also a big plus.

I think we are blessed to have such a talented craftsman in our area. A comparable Dimarzio pickup I was looking to buy was double the price after exchange and customization.

Keep up the good work!

Best sounding p ups

Best guy, best communication and best p ups!!!

Amazing tones. Searing leads crystal cleans

These sound amazing!

Installed into an Epiphone SG with a coil split. Very bright sound to begin with, splitting to the single coil brings the hum back in for what to me sounds like a “vintage” tone. Very very happy with these!

1 2 3

I installed this bridge pickup in an American deluxe fender Strat. I found the original pickup to be too thin. Tried a hot rail but that was too much bass and output for my tastes. Found Peg City pickups online and liked the price. I also wanted to proudly buy Canadian. This new pickup is really great. A lot thicker than the original and has more output. I use a lot of high gain amp tones and really like how it interacts. Lots of brightness when I need it and also able to get a nice thick tone by backing off on the tone a touch. Sounds great clean too. I definitely consider this handmade pickup an upgrade.

Fantastic pickups

Installed these on my 2024 Les Paul Standard, these are fantastic pickups and sound great for blues and blues rock. I ordered the uncovered double creams and man they look good. Will definitely order from Pegcity again

Amazing sound......

I put them in a single humbucker guitar and noticed they are very clear and can produce a wide range in tone and sound from country to metal and everything in between...they sounded great through it all.

Great pickups made in canada !

Very happy with the building quality and sound, will buy again.

Totally Transformative

I've put Pegcity Pickups into at least a dozen guitars for clients and myself, and I've never been disappointed. This time I wanted to bump up the tone on a couple of "budget" imports that I LOVE playing, but which needed a little help in the electronics. On one I added the Texas Triple Stack singles in the bridge and middle positions (and upgraded to 250K pots), and the difference was like night and day. A completely new guitar.

On the other; one of my absolute favourites; we opted for the Texan HSS set. That's a Superclutch bridge with the two Texas Triple Stack singles in the middle and neck. Again, a complete transformation. For a guitar that retails for a couple hundred dollars, it's now playing like fully pro-grade instrument, easily taking its place alongside my own custom Strat. Adding in the 250K pots again and upgrading to a Freeway switch, plus having that coil split Superclutch in the bridge, makes this a super versatile instrument.

In both guitars, the singles are crisp and clean, well-balanced, and incredibly responsive. And they're also dead quiet, which was a nice added surprise. The Superclutch has always been my absolute favourite humbucker for its output, balance, clarity, and versatility. I'd give this set 10/5 stars if I could.

I ONLY recommend Pegcity Pickups to my clients, and I'm always looking for ways to get them into my own guitars in between projects. You can't get a better pickup. Simple as that.
