Transition Neck & Bridge
Model pickups were designed for Steve Lukather and Luke's new LIII
Music Man guitar. The pickups are named after Steve’s new album, Transition
(release date January 21, 2013). Lukather played the LIII guitar with
Transition pickups throughout the new record. The passive Transition
humbuckers are both subtle and tough. They have power and they have
depth. Steve says they’re organic, and they allow him to own his sound.
“These days I like it simple and direct,” he shares. The Transition™
Neck Model performs like a vintage humbucker with a bad attitude. It has
punch and edge, and it’s fast.
The Transition Neck Model has
very good balance between solid bass and glassy treble. The spread
between lows and highs creates a big sound that works well for both
solos and backup, while the frequency response of the coils is tuned
just far enough apart to open up the mids without sounding hollow.
