Lollar Broiler pickup for Rickenbacker

The Broiler’s Back In Town!

After a years-long hiatus, the Lollar Broiler™ is back! This customer and staff favorite is our take on the classic sound of the Rickenbacker® Toaster®, delivering the classic jangle and chime made famous on countless seminal recordings.

When a supplier of some of the parts needed to build the Broiler suddenly went out of business several years ago, we had to discontinue it. Recently we were able to source quality parts from a new supplier, and we’re excited to be able to offer this classic pickup once more.

Our Broiler is a drop-in replacement for 6-and 12-string Rickenbacker® guitars. It offers excellent balance from string-to-string and between neck and bridge positions along with improvements to clarity and definition, and a shimmering top end chime that’s present but never brittle or harsh.

Our Broiler design offers excellent balance from string-to-string and between neck and bridge positions along with improvements to clarity and definition, and a shimmering top end chime that’s present but never brittle or harsh. It’s equally well-equipped for the job in both 6 and 12-string guitars. Built with chrome covers and black Forbon top.
