Summary
The Saturday Night Special humbucker set uses Alnico 4 magnets to deliver that authentic 70s sound.
Description
Unlike traditional humbuckers, the Saturday Night Special
humbuckers are voiced to be a little hotter and fatter in the bridge
position, and a little clearer and less “wooly” in the neck. They’re
more aggressive than 50s-style models, but without the compression of
most high gain pickups. These bridge the output level gap between
vintage 50s and modern humbuckers, making this pickup set perfect for
replicating those legendary late-70s arena rock tones.
The Saturday Night Special
Set is made in Santa Barbara, California. They come standard with
four-conductor wiring, maple spacer and short mounting legs.
