These are part of our humbucker sized Stratocaster single coil range. A Strat single coil is encased between a humbucker baseplate and humbucker cover to allow them to be installed in any standard humbucker equipped guitar. There's a tiny bit of treble loss due to the additional metal content in the pickup, but they're otherwise constructed and tonally identical.

 

These are a recreation of the bluesy pickups that were made famous in the 60s by Hendrix. These pickups have the twang, sparkle and clarity that you need to accurately recreate those famous tones.

These will chime like a bell in any position. They excel in any genre short of modern metal; pristine cleans to the most articulate distortion tones you've ever heard. They equally take effect pedals excellently (wah and fuzz particularly!).These are wound with approximately the same wind with push back wire to remain faithful to the original design. RWRP to be hum cancelling in the middle position.
Modern wire and winding patterns introduce a new level of clarity in these pickups that wasn't present in recreations. This clarity gives the pickup a livelier feel and a louder, more expressive quality. All while being able to drive a preamp into those beautiful smokey blues tones.
