A Custom Shop Set Designed for Clarity and Balance
The Fender Custom Shop Dual Mag II is designed for guitarists seeking a very clear response across the entire neck without sacrificing the classic "single coil Strat" character. The choice of two types of Alnico magnets maintains solid and articulate lows while delivering precise brightness on the high strings, ideal for open chords, funk rhythms, and expressive solos.
Who This Stratocaster Pickup Set Is For
This set of 3 pickups is aimed at musicians looking for a clear, balanced, and musical tone, whether to modernize a vintage-style Stratocaster or refine an already very responsive guitar. Thanks to string-by-string balancing, you achieve better volume and presence uniformity, particularly useful for clean tones, light crunch, and modulation effects.
Stagger and Dual Mag Magnets: More Consistent String-by-String Response
True to its name, the Dual Mag II combines two magnet families to adjust feel and projection according to each string. The Alnico 5 under the G string helps it "sing" just right, while the Alnico 2 magnets on the B and high E strings are slightly taller than original specs to improve overall balance. The result: a smoother transition between wound and plain strings, with stable definition even when played aggressively.
