The Custom Shop Character: A Strat with a Spicier Temperament
Designed in the spirit of the Fender Custom Shop, the Ancho Poblano pickups build on the sonic foundation that made the Stratocaster legendary: clarity, dynamics, and responsiveness to playing. Their formula emphasizes a fuller signature, for guitarists who want to keep the vintage DNA while gaining breadth and density.
For Which Guitarists and Styles?
This set of 3 pickups is aimed at musicians seeking a single-coil with a "fatter" sound, capable of handling drives without becoming thin. Ideal for blues, rock, roots, powerful funk, and any style requiring a snappy clean tone, expressive intermediate positions, and a more convincing bridge pickup in saturation.
Tonal Flexibility That Responds to Your Right Hand
Thanks to their unique overwinding and calibration, these pickups deliver a rich spectrum and an extra push sensation, while retaining the quick response typical of a Strat. Lowering the volume reveals an articulated vintage warmth; increasing the gain provides a hotter output level and a thick sound, with presence and very lively dynamics.
