The Friedman Classic S Alnico 3 single-coil neck pickup channels the clear, bell-like chime of vintage single-coil tones while adding just enough midrange presence to stay bold and expressive with gain. Handcrafted in the USA by Grover Jackson and precisely voiced by Dave Friedman, this pickup captures the spirit of the early electric guitar sounds that defined countless timeless tracks. Expect glassy cleans, articulate note definition and a smooth, musical attack that shines whether you're playing soulful blues, shimmering pop or classic rock melodies.

Alnico 3 Clarity With Sweet Vintage Warmth

With a DC resistance of 7.2K and an Alnico 3 rod magnet core, the Classic S neck pickup delivers lower output than modern single-coils for an unmistakably old-school sound—sparkling highs, balanced lows and sweet sustain. Wax potting minimizes unwanted noise while preserving the open, dynamic feel that responds beautifully to your pick attack and playing dynamics. Roll up the gain and you'll hear focused mids and singing clarity that cut through the mix without losing that iconic Strat-like shimmer.

Crafted by Grover Jackson to Bring Out Your Guitar's Natural Voice

Meticulously made in the USA by Grover Jackson's expert team and custom voiced by Dave Friedman, the Classic S neck pickup fits standard single-coil routes for effortless installation. It pairs seamlessly with Friedman's Classic S middle and bridge pickups for a balanced vintage-modern set, or shines solo for those who crave sweet, expressive neck tones. It's your ticket to authentic, chiming single-coil flavor with the dependability and build quality players expect from Friedman and Grover Jackson.
