Anthem Humbucker Set
The Anthem Humbucker Set
Southern Rock DNA. Classic Rock Edge.
The Anthem Humbucker Set was built for players chasing the legendary tones of Gary Rossington, Steve Gaines, and Allen Collins —and taking them further. From Skynyrd’s fiery southern rock anthems to the greasy grit of ZZ Top, the swagger of Aerosmith, the punch of Bad Company, and the twin-guitar fire of Thin Lizzy and AC/DC, these pickups capture the raw soul and power of humbucker-driven rock.
Inspired by Legends
Gary Rossington: Singing sustain and rich overtones, perfect for expressive slide work.
Steve Gaines: Bright, articulate rhythm and lead tones full of energy and clarity.
Allen Collins: Punchy attack and woody character that cut through riffs and solos.
Billy Gibbons (ZZ Top): Greasy, fat humbucker crunch with endless sustain.
Joe Perry (Aerosmith): Raw, snarling bite with singing leads.
Mick Ralphs (Bad Company): Big, open chords with tight, focused mids.
Thin Lizzy & AC/DC: Dual-guitar punch and articulate riff power.
Why Alnico 4?
At the heart of the Anthems are Alnico 4 magnets, chosen for their ability to strike the sweet spot between vintage warmth and modern bite. With smoother highs than Alnico 5 and tighter lows than Alnico 2, they deliver fat, woody humbucker tones that stay articulate whether clean, dirty, or pushed into slide.
Tone & Features

Neck Pickup: Smooth, woody, and cello-like—perfect for soulful leads and warm cleans.

The Anthem Sound
