There are a couple of sectrets to a great Tron: Small loose small coils, for a bright open airy voice. Coupled with a huge bar magnet and loads of steel - ramping up the inductance and adding some meat.

Don't let the low dc fool you into thinking Filtertron style pickups are soppy low output pups only good for polite rockabilly! They snarl & growl when you need them to!

Available in standard Filtertron sizes: 

48mm Neck & 51mm Bridge (string spacing)

Top mount or ring mount. See below for other Options

Standard Models

Light Wood Panel

Fletch O'Tron

Vintage Alnico V

Made with large Alnico 5 bar magnets & fat steel screw poles. Combined with a low output, these are bright & jangly pickups synonymous with that rockabilly, hollow bodies twang of yesteryear!
Twangy rockabilly - certainly. Will these Rock? Oh yes! With the push of that fat magnet & the bright clear voice, if you play these through some overdrive/distortion they retain their clarity & really hold up in the mix.
Beautiful in hollow as well solid bodies, Trons are versatile pickups with a charming tender clean voice up to a bright dirty snarl.

Fletch O'Power

Vintage/Hot Alnico V

Same overall design as the Fletch O'Tron, just with more coil wire for a slightly fuller push. More output means improved mid response as well as a bit more push to the front end of your amp. Still maintaining most of that jangly sparkle, with more power it provides more growl and presence in the mids.
With more power, these will push an amp harder than a Tron, but still significantly less than a normal humbucker. Still incredibly bright, articulate and dynamic with a sweet clean voice.
My Favorite sounding bridge pickup!

Bridge 6.5K 3.0H

HyperFletch

Modern Alnico V

Using the design of the Fletch O'Tron but with much more meat on the bones!
Essentially this is a Tron pushed into HB output. With that fat magnet, this will retain more of the sweet top end over a HB, but with that power to stir up distortion.
This retains most of the clear high ends and that low end presence of a Vintage Tron, but with more in the mid range and higher output.
This is a powerhouse of tone! Full mids and tight bass. Rock-a-billy this is not!
