A set long reserved for the Custom Shop, now more accessible
The Psychedelic Strat was designed as a true time machine: a set of single-coil pickups faithful to the era's codes, long available only through the Custom Shop. Its arrival in the standard catalog allows you to enjoy this vintage signature with shorter lead times and lower cost, without compromising the sought-after sonic DNA.
For whom and in which styles?
Designed for a Strat-type guitar, this set targets guitarists seeking 60s-inspired rock and blues tones: punchy rhythms, open, breathing chords, and solos that expand. If you want a pickup that remains musical in clean tones while keeping precision when engaging fuzz, this kit is an ideal foundation.
Sound character and design: vintage, without compromise
With its Alnico V pole pieces and a winding very faithful to the period, the Psychedelic Strat delivers a full low end, bright highs, and slightly scooped mids for a wider, more "airy" feel. The result: crystal-clear cleans, great touch responsiveness, and excellent note definition when the signal gets more saturated (fuzz, wah-wah, controlled feedback). The parchment finish perfectly matches vintage Strat aesthetics, for a look coherent with the sound.
