THE PERFECT BALANCE BETWEEN WARM AND BRIGHT

Blues Special Strat Pickups are our second best-selling single coil set. Musicians looking for a thick, warm sound will love the sound of these pickups. Blues Specials are wound with 5% more coil than Vintage Hots, making them sound 5% hotter and thicker. This model can help you balance out a bright guitar by adding thickness to the tone.

It starts here: Our manufacturing process allows us to achieve unparalleled quality control. Blues Specials consist of local fiberboard and USA-Made Alnico 5 Magnets. We wind each pickup by hand, one at a time. Each pickup is wound using our proprietary “Sectioning” technique. This gives the pickup a sweet, clear tone. Finally, we wax-pot the pickup to preserve the pickup, and prevent microphonics.

These pickups are our second best-selling set. They are a great choice for musicians who want a more thickness in their single note soloing. Blues Specials will also give you more crunch in your chord playing. Blues Specials are 5% darker and thicker than our Vintage Hot Pickups.
