Very often, designing a pickup is a balance of contradicting desires. An Alnico 5 can make your rhythm heavy and leads Shrill and trebly, while and Alnico 2 can give creamy smooth leads, but make your lows muddy and flubby. Try to play a complex jazz chord with high gain cranking, you're going to get mush from your speakers.

Unless of course, you're using a Mag Frag pickup. Mag Frags have a unique magnet and winding design that creates an extremely clear and balanced pickup set. 

Mag Frag pickups use Alnico V magnets for the bottom two strings, Alnico IV for the middle two strings and Alnico II. The result is a well-balanced and articulate pickup that allows you to hear everything, even through extreme high gain rigs. 

Mag Frags are available in Humbucker standard spacing or F spaced, Strat and Tele configurations or as single pickups. In Humbuckers, there are several styles within the humbucker range, The Aeria Buckers, which are a Vintage output pickup, The Praxis Bucker is a Classic Rock era output pickup, a bit hotter, The Praxis+, a Modern High Gain, and the Riotbucker, an extra high output pickup. 

Several cover and bobbin colors are available by order.
