The 1969 Jazz Strat set was inspired by a couple of amazing sets from the late 1960’s. This is the period of time in which the switch they started uses less wire on the pickups vs. The mid 60’s. The 60’s Strat pickups are known for being warmer or what some would even call a bit darker than the 50’s Strat Pickups. The use of less plain enamel copper magnet wire on late 60 vs. Mid 60’s delivered a smoother, clearer and more open tone. We used these late-60’s Strat’s as a tonal starting point. Using special materials along with our proprietary techniques we’ve added enhanced dynamics & increased sustain. This will also enable you to hear the previously hidden harmonics from your guitar. Unlike other pickups, they stay really articulate when you roll off the tone. You’ll notice these tonal differences immediately. These are the Best Strat Pickups for a Jazzy tone.
