Dragonfire Active Strat pickups are ceramic magnet style pickups for the single coil swagger and down-n-dirty progressive sound you want without all the noise. The ceramic magnets in these pickups offer cutting-edge, crisp and modern tone to help you achieve an intense yet clean noiseless performance.
Active Strat pickups work great for most Strat set-ups and are perfect for blues, rock, country and any other genre that benefits from the famous tone and power only active pickups can deliver. Rock and metal players can amp up sustain, power and performance with these pickups. Enjoy a slick, sleek and clean look with these covered style pickups without any exposed poles or rails.
These pickups are interchangeable and can work in any position to give you flexible installation and play options. Dragonfire Actives feature Quick-Connect 3-Pin style pickup wire leads and a battery clip for easier installation (soldering required). ACTIVE pickups require a 9v battery (not included). We recommend using 25K pots, 0.1 tone caps, and a stereo jack. We offer the option to include the accessory kit style of your choice with your purchase if you need these components.
Select our build service if you’d like us to create the harness for you and incorporate the pickups. Note that we can only include the items you select in your harness. For example, if you don’t add a switch or select a jack, we won’t add those components to the harness and you’ll have to do that yourself, if desired. Depending on your set-up, you may still need to unsolder the pickup and/or jack wires, run your wires through the cavity, and resolder. Contact us if you have any questions about this or any other option.
