Our pickups are trusted by the pros
Butcher BrownRandazzo Big Band
"Lindy Fralin Pickups bring out the best in my basses. Their products are top-notch, and their website is a treasure trove of information. Shout out to the “Two Tone Caps One Knob” mod. I am blessed to share a city with them in Richmond, VA. Amazing pickups, amazing people."
Broadway/Session GuitaristSir Richard NewtonMAN
“Whether I’m playing on Broadway, with my original band, in a cabaret, or a film score orchestra, my Fralin pickups always keep up with whatever gets thrown my way. Surviving in the scene presents so many demanding challenges and Lindy’s designs check all the boxes for me. Whether it be the split blades in my Strats and Teles or the 5% underwind hum cancelling p90’s in my Novo, they deliver the mail every single time. As they say… make a joyful noise. A hum-cancelling, but joyful noise.”
Billy Joel
"Hear your instrument, it’s individual personality, it’s every nuance. Every 4 string I own rings true with Lindy Fralin Pickups."
Warren WolfDebórah BondZo! & Tall Black Guy
"Before Fralin Pickups, I was doing everything I could to breathe life into my bass. It just wasn't working, but these pickups did the trick!! Quiet, responsive, and much more - everything you need in a pickup!! Can't thank you guys enough, honestly."
U.S. BastardsGWAR
"I've always been on a journey to find a sound that matches what I hear in my head and responds how I want to the way I play. Working together with Lindy to develop a pickup was a joy and what we ended up with hit the nail on the head exactly. When I plug in my guitar and hit that first chord it's magic every time. It's hard to get excited about playing anything else at this point!"
D.J. Williams BandKarl Denson's Tiny UniverseJohn Legend
“As a tone fanatic, I’m always chasing that perfect balance of warmth, clarity, and punch—and Lindy Fralin pickups deliver every time. Whether I’m laying down clean rhythms or pushing my amp into overdrive, these pickups respond with incredible dynamics and character. The craftsmanship is top-tier, and they bring out the best in my playing. If you’re serious about your tone, Fralins are the real deal.”
Ben PlattInikoBig Stuff
"Fralin has absolutely breathed new life into every guitar I own. These are some of the most dynamic and reliable pickups I have played and will continue to be a part of my sound for years to come."
Moga Family Band
"I am always in search of quality. So glad that I found Fralin. Their attention to detail and quality is something that makes you feel confident and proud to have in your guitar. The sonic difference is obvious"
Solo ArtistLeon BridgesKamasi Washington
“If you feel as though your instrument might be too sterile sounding or lacking in sonic character, Fralin is the way to go. A very rich vintage foundation of organic sound that works for all genres.”
Solo ArtistJulian Lage & Chris Eldridge
"What a monster pickup! thank you to Tyler from Fralin Pickups for sharing the Alnico Rod P90 with me - sounds great!"
Solo Artist8G Band
"These Fralin pickups are working like a charm. They're canceling out the hum in the bridge and neck settings, and at the same time, bringing a world of definition to my Fender Jazzmaster. Perfect!"
GuitaristYouTuber
"Fralin pickups are the perfect combination of classic tones and innovative designs, which really suits my style. I've been using them since the 90's, and every Fralin pickup I've tried has been "10/10, no notes". "
BeyonceTLCEllie Goulding
"Fralin pickups have been a game changer for me. To be able to get incredible, realistic and noiseless! single coil tone without having to do any surgery on my guitar has really just made my work/life easier. Can’t recommend them or sing their praises enough!"
Solo Artist
"Lindy Fralin nailed everything I love about vintage Strat pickups a long time ago and that’s why I’ve kept them in some of my favorite guitars all these years. Truly inspirational in the studio, on the road and stirring up the neighbors at home."
Great Southern ReunionLee Roy ParnellSkydog
“The first time I ever tried Fralin pickups, it was as if somebody removed a heavy blanket from in front of my amp. I could hear all the detail and articulation that I had been missing before; like hearing my guitar in Hi-Def. Amazing. Fralin pickups have had a permanent place in my tone arsenal ever since. Thanks Lindy!"
