Summary
The ultimate overwound Strat single coil pickup, found in the
bridge position of the David Gilmour Signature Fender Stratocaster. **You are purchasing the Reverse Wound / Reverse Polarity (RwRp) Version
Description
Mr. Gilmour needed a
pumped up sound for his famous Black Strat, so Seymour wound what
became the Custom Staggered. It has been, and continues to be, an honor
to work with such a legend. The Custom Staggered is a special overwound
single coil that strikes the perfect balance between increased output
and bouncy Stratocaster tonal character. It will deliver bigger, fatter
chords, and will cut through the mix more clearly than a traditional
Strat pickup, without losing the sparkle that makes a Strat sound so
unique.
Single notes will be bold and loud, and your solos will really
sing.Use in the bridge position with pair of Vintage Staggered strats in
the neck & middle for the Gilmour style setup. Or use an SSL-5 in
the neck and bridge with a SSL-5 RWRP in the middle for noiseless setup
in the 2nd and 4th positions. The bobbins are built with hand ground
alnico 5 rod magnets, lacquered then wound and are wax potted for squeal
free performance. We use modern oval Forbon flatwork (non-triangular)
which enables this pickup to fit into any guitar that is routed for
single coils.
