Fender Eric Johnson Stratocaster Pickups, Set of 3

Description

Fender�s R&D engineers worked closely with world renowned guitarist and tone connoisseur Eric Johnson to craft the perfect pickups for his uniquely articulate sound. Carefully blending Leo�s legacy with EJ�s modern discerning sonic tastes, these Strat pickups are a key element of EJ�s unmistakably pure tone. Each pickup is unique in structure and performance. The neck pickup is based on a �54 Strat pickup with oversized alnico 3 magnets. The middle pickup, based on a �63 Strat pickup, uses specially treated alnico magnets and is reverse wound to cancel hum when used with the neck or bridge pickup. The bridge pickup uses alnico 5 magnets and is specially voiced to be hotter without sacrificing that sweet top end sparkle. Photograph by Max Crace.
