Whether you're after a twangy sound with plenty of treble or a biting tone that's rich and rounded, Gretsch has a guitar pickup for you in this section.

While each and every one of these guitar pickups is worthy of a closer look, we'll suggest starting with the Gretsch standard, otherwise known as the DynaSonic Single-Coil Electric Guitar Pickup. Since the late 1940s, this pickup was one of the first of its kind to offer separate adjustable pole-pieces. The full bass response and sparkling highs of the DynaSonic will be sure to impress any guitarist who wants the replicate the original rockabilly tone.

Another pickup that belongs on the axe of any retro rocker is the Filter'Tron Humbucker Electric Guitar Pickup.

Arm your favorite axe with a Gretsch guitar pickup and see for yourself why they continue to be respected by rockers around the world.
