Frequently asked questions
Which pickup fits my guitar?
Measure your bridge pole spacing. If it's approximately 1.93" or less, use the SHPR-1b (standard humbucker-spaced). If it's 2.07" or greater, use the TBPR-1b (trembucker-spaced). Wide-spaced guitars like many Ibanez, ESP, and modern shredders typically need the trembucker.
Can I switch between sounds with the SHPR-1b?
The SHPR-1b uses P-Rails architecture and includes a 4-conductor lead wire, so it can be wired for coil-splitting if you add an external switch. The TBPR-1b offers full humbucker/P-90/single-coil mode switching and is pre-designed to accept a 2-way or 3-way switch.
Which is better for metal?
Both excel at metal due to high output and articulate attack. The SHPR-1b delivers a focused, cutting tone ideal for dense mixes. The TBPR-1b offers the same aggression but with switchable modes, giving you extra textural options within one pickup.
Do I need to modify my guitar for either pickup?
The SHPR-1b requires no routing if your guitar already has a humbucker cavity with standard spacing. The TBPR-1b also requires no routing but only fits guitars with wide (2.07"+) bridge spacing. Both require proper wiring knowledge or professional installation to access all switching features.
