The ultimate tone generator. Alnico 5, scatter wound 42 enamel for fat and rounded tone with a lot of snarl. Full clean tones. RW/RP for hum-cancelling in middle position. Resistances are estimated, and intended for general comparison only. This is my favorite pickup I build by far. I build every single one by hand with nothing but the finest material, the attention to detail, and the time it takes to do it right. They will be the last set you ever buy. Unless, of course, you own more than one guitar.

Rough finished, degaussed alnico 5 magnets for articulate notes and wide dynamics
RW/RP for hum cancelling in the middle position
42AWG plain enamel wire wound to my specific number of winds and tension is what really sets mine apart from the others
Vintage spec’d German nickel silver baseplates
Vintage braided wire to stay true to the authenticity of the originals
Standard 50mm pole spacing
Resistance may vary from set to set since the winding process goes strictly by the number of turns of wire but DC resistances tend to be around 8.6k for the bridge and 8.0k for the neck
Lifetime craftsmanship warranty against manufacture's defects. Satisfaction Guaranteed.

You can’t go wrong with Sheptone!

I use these in all my guitars & they’re the best! Can’t say enough good things about Josh/Sheptone! Keep it goin!

Thank you so much for the love.

P-90 Bridge

Smooth and crunchy
Perfect for my LPJ that I use primarily for slide, great dynamic response.
Thanks!

Thanks John

Great P90’s!

Just got these in and installed. I had a set of Wolftone P90’s with alnico 2’s. These pickups blow those out of the water. Beautifully articulate with just enough grit for that perfect P90 tone. Could be happier with these pickups and the service.

Thank you very much for the kind words

P-90 Paradise!

This soapbar set brought my Custom Shop Les Paul to life- articulate, balanced across each string, the bridge position has that bite and midrange that cuts through and sounds full, never harsh. The neck pickup has all the creamy yet not muddy tone that responds to volume and/or tone pot variations ( slays that “woman tone “ vibe). They’re just what I needed!

Really vintage tone 335

Both 6T8 have a fast, dynamic response at any volume. Both overdrive and distortion work equally well. Warm and harmonious sound. Great.

Sweet sound tele pups!

I replaced fender 64pure vintage pups with sheptone A2tele.
This pickup set sounds sweet so if you like jazz, blues, solo guitar and so on, you can enjoy the tone. If you like punchy tele sound, I recommend you go to sheptone A5 tele set. I think this goes better with swapash body and maple fingerboad!

Great Sounds

I purchased a set for my Warmoth build, and they sound just great! Clean or overdriven, they have a certain clarity to them that I like. And they never sound harsh to my ears. I have them wired like a 50's LP, and with a phase switch wired on a push pull pot. I can get all kinds of sounds out of these. Thank you!

An amazing and unique set of PAFs, and a standout builder.

The Sheptone Blue Sky set is an exceptional pair of PAFs. The neck is somehow both airy and woody, and also smooth and creamy. It never gets muddy but delivers very smooth and round tones.

The bridge, in my opinion, is a very special pickup that really stood out to me. I have never experienced such a vocal sounding and expressive bridge pickup in my life, it just does everything I want it to do and more. It's like a 52 tele on steroids without an ounce of harshness in the treble. Roll back the volume and it doesn't lose any heft, and gets you even closer to a single-coil like sound. It's insanely inspiring.

On top of that, Josh is super helpful and available to answer any questions you may have. Truly top notch customer service.

Stop Chasing Dragons

Just buy this thing. It's the best humbucker for any style of music, period. Don't tell me you're a tone snob unless you at least try it.

High gain? It's wound enough to give you some serious chugs and leads so smooth, like butter on a muffin, but not too much that you lose clarity and definition to compression.

Clean? This is one of the very few bridge pickups that can actually pull off a great clean tone without fumbling with the volume and tone, and it holds up split.

It's friendly with fuzz and drive pedals, built like a tank (seriously, Josh isn't screwing around with that baseplate and wire quality) and sleek enough to fit into any humbucker routing.
