Detail 01
24k resistance
Very hot. Pushes an amp's front end hard into distortion and thickens the midrange, at the cost of clean headroom.

LaceDrop and Gain Humbucker Pickup Black Bridge
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
High-output bridge humbucker built for gain. For players chasing tight, aggressive rhythm tone in a standard humbucker rout.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Metal and hard rock rhythm work at high gain
- Replacing a muddy stock bridge pickup on a budget
- Drop tunings that need a tight low end
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Clean jazz or country players who want warmth and dynamics
- Neck-position swaps, this is a bridge pickup
- Guitars with single-coil routs only
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
6.5 henries inductance
High inductance rolls off some top-end air. Reads as thick and focused rather than glassy or bright.
Detail 03
2260 Hz peak frequency
Voiced in the upper mids where guitar cuts through a mix. Keeps palm-muted riffs defined instead of woolly.
Detail 04
Bridge position
Wound and voiced for the bridge, where string movement is smallest. Installing it at the neck sounds boomy and unbalanced.
Detail 05
Black cover
Standard humbucker-size in black. Matches black hardware; against chrome or gold it will stand out.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01No pots, wiring harness or mounting ring included. Pickup only.
- 02Needs a standard humbucker rout, will not drop into a single-coil slot.
- 03Very hot output can overwhelm low-wattage clean amps.
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Is this good for metal?
Yes. 24k resistance and an upper-mid peak around 2260 Hz put it firmly in high-gain territory with tight, focused distortion.
02Can I put this in the neck position?
You can physically, but it is voiced for the bridge and will sound thick and undefined at the neck. Use a neck-specific pickup instead.
03Will it fit my Les Paul?
If the guitar has a standard humbucker rout, yes. Mounting rings and springs are not included, so reuse the ones already on the guitar.
04Does it clean up when I roll back the volume?
High-output pickups clean up less than vintage-wind ones. Expect some cleanup, but this is built for gain, not sparkle.
