Frequently asked questions

Can I use both pickups together in the same guitar?

No. The SHPR-1n is a neck pickup and the TBPR-1b is a bridge pickup—they serve different positions. They are not alternatives to each other; you would need both to outfit a guitar fully. They are designed to work in their respective positions.

What's the difference between neck and bridge output?

The SHPR-1n has 13k DCR typical of neck pickups, delivering lower output and warm, compressed tone for balance. The TBPR-1b is bridge-voiced with higher output for sustained resonance and definition. Neck pickups sound smoother; bridge pickups cut through with more presence.

Do I need special wiring for either pickup?

Both have 4-conductor leads for coil-splitting and wiring flexibility. The SHPR-1n pairs with standard bridge pickups for hum-cancellation. The TBPR-1b requires a 2-way or 3-way switch to access all three P-Rails modes; standard setups only unlock one or two tones.

Which pickup works in a guitar with close string spacing at the bridge?

The TBPR-1b is a trembucker with f-spaced pole spacing of approximately 2.070 inches, designed only for wide-spaced bridges over 2 inches. If your bridge has tight spacing, this pickup will not align properly with strings and is not suitable.
