Lerxst Limelight HSS Prewired Strat Pickguard (Standard)

Rush guitarist Alex Lifeson has teamed up with Mojotone to recreate his most iconic Hentor Sportscaster tones into a drop-in ready Lerxst Limelight HSS pickguard. 

Each pickguard is hand-wired to perfection using the same original design dual blade humbucker matched with 2 higher output single coil Strat pickups that have been carefully calibrated to match the output of the humbucker for a full and dynamic tone in every position.  The Lerxst Limelight dual blade humbucker utilizes an alnico magnet and chrome plated surround for a smooth treble response that cuts through the mix with punchy lows, and strong midrange presence. Limelight Strat pickups offer a perfect balance in output with the humbucker for clear and chimey Strat single coil tones. 

Highly recommended for metal, rock, and heavy distortion. Don't be fooled though, it can handle clean tones quite well, especially the single coils. 

“The original Hentor brought together a mix of tone and playability that empowered me to explore sounds and styles of playing that I had never attempted before,” said Lifeson. “Ultimately these things became signature parts of my style. 

Initially formed in 2012, LERXST is a partnership between Alex Lifeson and Mojotone founded on the desire to design and manufacture a line of guitar products that reflect Lifeson's forward-thinking approach to sonic exploration and live performance. Bringing together the Rush guitarist’s five decades of musical exploration and Mojotone’s singular commitment to high-level design and craftsmanship in musical equipment, the brand offers a range of amplifiers, guitars, effects pedals, and pickups that appeal to all levels of player looking to explore the next frontier of guitar sounds.
