2-Stroke Humbucker

Love these. Mostly play things ranging from funk rock to grunge and these cover all my bases.

Don't give your money to massive companies, give it to a guy who cares.

One thing I can say about Kris at Pegcity Pickups, he is a master at finding the tone that you have in your head. I had a PRS Swamp Ash Special SE that I didn't like the pickups in. I had Kris do a set for me another guitar and it just elevated it so much. I decided to go again with this guitar. With the 2 Strokes and a modified Triple stack to match, this baby now sings. There are some arrangements of pickups where the clarity and tone matches what I had in my head. There is no better feeling then that. It allows the creativity to flow and makes me want to play and hear more...

Thank you Kris.

…in short…

2 Strokes pickups transformed a 1500$ great guitar 🎸 to a 3000$+ exceptional guitar!

My brother in law is a Les Paul fan (he owns 4 models) and you should have seen his face when he heard the sound of my “less glamorous” Godin Summit HT after I installed Pegcity pickups. His ’59 reissue (7000$) does not beat my Summit anymore 😂. His guitar is for sale if interested…

By the way, I own a Les Paul Recording and I must say that this Summit HT is easier to play. Only weak feature is original pickups but since I switched to 2 Strokes, Godin now surpasses my Les Paul.

Looking at replacing Seymour Duncan pickups for 2 Strokes on my Godin LGXT.

Got the 2-stroke for the neck position of a HSS. The build quality is superb, and the hand engraving on the baseplate is a nice touch. Straight away the clarity of this pickup shone through under light and medium drive. I don't hear much "woolliness" in the bass, and the treble is well balanced and sweet. Responds very well to volume control - which is a must-have for me. I compared the 2-stroke to a Bareknuckles VHII in a similar guitar - if anything, the 2-stroke sounds a little more present and strident (almost identical output) with a slightly different midrange. The BKP is way more expensive...but the 2-stroke is its equal in almost every way. I would absolutely buy another!

Very happy with the 2-Stroke humbucker in the bridge of my HSS strat! First of all it looks absolutely beautiful with the raw nickel cover, and the sound is very versatile as described for really any style. After playing with my pickup heights a bit, it's well balanced with the low-medium output neck and middle pickups, and lots of room for adjustment depending on your flavour. The coil split bridge/middle position is a really solid 2nd position strat sound, and the bridge on it's own is definitely rockin', but can really pull off anything. I get a very satisfying americana/alt-country kind of sound from it, and it's just as home cranking out high gain metal riffs. Sound great through my Princeton Reverb Reissue '65 and also very impressed with the clarity and depth through my Neural DSP plugins. Very stoked to be able to support a Canadian builder - thanks and keep up the good work!
