1956 Strat Replica Pickup set
The John Henry 1956 Strat replica pickups faithfully emulate the vintage pickups found in late '50s Stratocasters, preserving their iconic sound and character. These pickups are meticulously crafted to bring forth a vintage warmth that adds a subtle smoothness to the tone, while preserving exceptional clarity.
What truly distinguishes these pickups is their remarkable ability to achieve a finely balanced tonal character in all three pickup positions. A distinct and instantly recognizable tonal signature emerges when you blend the middle pickup with either the neck or bridge pickup. This signature is characterized by its unique, hollow, and quacky sound—a hallmark of vintage Stratocaster pickups that adds a distinctive charm to your playing.
