Single coil pickups are one of the most common types of pickups you can find, and it literally has single coil magnets on the pickup. Single coil pickups are also the first electric pickups to be invented, and it’s been loved and used by guitar players around the world since the 1930s. Single coil pickups are known for their sharp, biting tone that we heard on countless blues, RnB, and rock classics that we grew up with. Compared to P90s or humbuckers, single coil pickups are much clearer and more focused. Because of this, single coils are the most widely used for genres like funk, surf, soul, and country. And by combining it with a little bit of overdrive, it’s a great choice for genres like blues and rock.
One downside of single coil pickups might be that it has more feedback than humbucker pickups. Especially with some gain in your guitar tone, you’re bound to run into quite a bit of feedback with a single coil pickup. So that’s one of the reasons why single coil pickups aren’t usually the first pick when it comes to hardcore genres like metal or hard rock.
