In 2004 Ron Ellis embarked on a quest to unravel the secrets behind the exceptional sound of guitars from the '50s and '60s. Armed with over 35 years of engineering experience, particularly in materials and mechanical design, Ron utilised high-tech machinery to reverse engineer the electronics of '50s and '60s guitars, focusing on pickups. Based in Carlsbad, California, Ron and his dedicated team meticulously handcraft each pickup, adhering to vintage specifications. The process involves no shortcuts or compromises, ensuring an authentic vintage sound that mirrors the craftsmanship of guitars from the golden era.
Introducing the Ron Ellis Pickups, exclusively available at Peach Guitars, the premier destination for top-tier guitar gear in the UK. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail and a passion for preserving the timeless essence of vintage tone, these pickups are a guitarist's dream come true.
First in the spotlight is the 52T, a faithful recreation of the inaugural T-style bridges. Meticulously modelled after an original 1951 prototype, the 52T captures the coveted Blackguard sound - a smoky, woody, and wiry classic tone. Its enchanting compression, exquisite bloom, and overall responsiveness make it a sonic masterpiece, offering a fundamental and evenly balanced spectrum across tones. From Vince Gill to Julian Lage, Steve Wariner to Brent Mason, and Jimmy Olander, the 52T spans a wide range of classic Tele sounds, making it a must-have for discerning musicians.
For those seeking the distinctive sound that graces the neck pickup of Julian Lage's original 1954, look no further than the JL pickup - a lower-wound marvel designed exclusively for Lage. Currently gracing two of his Teles, the JL boasts a slightly scooped midrange, accentuated highs, and pronounced lows, making it an ideal choice for Blues, Jazz, and intricate picking styles. Its popularity for solo playing, dynamic feel, and impeccable compression is unrivalled, adding a rich tapestry of harmonics to any setup.
Notable artists like Brad Paisley, David Grissom, John Fogerty, Peter Stroud, and Julian Lage entrust their tone to Ron Ellis T-style pickups.
