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. Steve says he's started over
sonically and is into a more organic sound these days, but the
Transition Bridge Model has a tough, in-your-face sound that's also
perfect for shredding and technical playing.
A powerful magnet
and coils tuned to slightly different frequencies create very strong
fundamental tones, with sustained notes that resolve easily to first-
and second-order harmonics. The output rating isn't as high as our
loudest models, but the Transition™ Bridge Model puts a lot of impact
into every picked note.
