These Lollar Imperials are seriously impressive – a refined take on the classic PAF sound. The Alnico 2 neck provides a beautiful, vocal quality, while the Alnico 5 bridge cuts through without being harsh. They’re perfect for players seeking a vintage vibe with improved clarity and articulation, especially in semi-hollow guitars where they really shine.

Frequently Asked Questions
Lollars tend to have a slightly more refined, less aggressive character than some others, with a more pronounced vintage 'air' and a sweeter high-end.
Absolutely, they'll tame a Les Paul's inherent upper-midrange and add a touch of vintage warmth while retaining plenty of bite.
The Alnico 2 neck splits beautifully into a warm, chimey single-coil, while the Alnico 5 bridge offers a more defined, slightly brighter single-coil tone – both very usable.
