Roswell Pickups FLT2-B Alnico V Hot Rod Bridge Nickel Ear Mount
These babies were fairly easy to install in a Gretsch Streamliner hollow body. A couple of mounting rings (FLT2) was required, but also a set of ring risers; one for the neck- and to for the bridge pickup (not sure if they are available on this site). Without the ring risers you will not be able to get the pickups up high enough. If you’re looking for that “Setzer sound” you’re very close with these ones. Sounds great through a tube amp together with a decent delay pedal. The pickups not only sound good, they also together with the mounting rings make the Streamliner look exactly as good as a Gretsch hollow body should look.
