Frequently Asked Questions
What's included in this set, and do I need anything else to install it?
The set includes both pickups, active control electronics, output jack, battery clip assembly, mounting hardware, springs, volume and tone controls, and everything needed for a solderless installation. You'll just need basic hand tools and a guitar body routed for single-coil pickups.
How does active circuitry help with noise and tone?
Battery-powered active electronics eliminate the hum and noise typical of passive single coils while maintaining consistent output levels. Alnico magnets preserve the harmonic character of traditional single-coil designs, so you get clarity and punch without muddiness.
What genres and playing styles is this set best suited for?
The TX excels in country, rock, indie, and studio sessions where articulate tone and single-coil definition are priorities. It's not optimized for metal or djent styles that demand darker, higher-output voicings.
How does the solderless installation system work?
The solderless design uses pre-wired connectors and clips instead of traditional soldering, speeding up installation and reducing the chance of wiring errors. It's beginner-friendly but also works well for intermediate and advanced players doing quick upgrades.
How does this compare to passive single-coil pickups?
The TX combines single-coil transparency with active noise rejection and output consistency that passive pickups can't match. You retain that articulate, punchy character but without the hum, making it more studio-reliable and stage-ready.
Do I pay sales tax on this order?
Sales tax is collected only on orders shipped to California; orders shipped to any other US state are not charged sales tax at checkout when you buy direct from our website. At a typical 7% rate that is an estimated $15 less at checkout than the same listed price on a marketplace, which collects sales tax as the facilitator in most states. Buyers remain responsible for any use tax their state applies. Free US shipping and 30-day returns are included.
