New for 2020 ! The Overwound Set !
With all three pickups slightly overwound on Alnico V magnets, this set is designed to give a little more push.
Combining our City Limits single coils with our new Birmingham AC5 bridge humbucker. This set sizzles!
AC5 Alnico V Humbucker:
The bridge pickup is overwound by 5% to just under 9k, giving plenty of power, a prominent midrange, all while retaining chimey, detailed highs. When split to a single coil or run in parallel, this pickup excels at single coil tones, without the massive volume drop that plague some humbuckers.
TRS2 Alnico V Single Coils
The City Limits set is designed to offer guitarists a hotter Stratocaster sound with unrivalled versatility.
The neck and mid pickups are wound to emulate the sought-after “overwound” late 50’s-style pickups that vintage collectors have found to have a rich piano-like bass and thick trebles – a tone that has become known as the “Texas” sound.
