For warmer toned ash, alder or basswood body instruments (electric guitars), works especially well with rosewood finger-boards.
One of the most popular single-coil for Strat. The hand-ground Alnico 5 magnets and moderate windings (Heavy Formvar wire) yield a bright and punchy tone with vintage output. Perfect for players who need accurate traditional single-coil tone, especially with clean and mildly distortede amp settings. Compared to the APS-1, the SSL-1 has a more focused "bell" tone with a light bass response. Comes with waxed cloth hookup cable and vintage-style "keyed" bottom plate.
The SSL-1 is available: as SSL-1, as RW/RP middle pickup, for left-handed guitars, and as calibrated "California 50's" set (neck/middle/bridge) with RW/RP middle pickup.
