A Hot Stack Designed for the Bridge Position
The STK-S2B is designed for guitarists who love the character of a Stratocaster in the bridge position but want more thickness and power. Its single coil format fits easily on a Strat pickguard while offering a beefier response and greater stability against background noise.
For Which Styles and Guitars?
With its announced applications in Country, Pop, Blues, Classic Rock, and Heavy Rock, this pickup suits both crisp rhythm playing and more pronounced solos. In the bridge position, it adds body and sustain, particularly useful if you find your stock pickup too thin or too sensitive to interference when increasing gain.
Power, Precision, and Wiring Versatility
Its ceramic magnet promotes a sharp attack and good definition, while its 20.6 K resistance signals a more aggressive and saturatable range. The 6 kHz peak helps maintain presence in the mix. Thanks to the split and 4-conductor wiring, you can consider more flexible setups (split, combinations, selectors) to switch from a thick sound to more airy tones depending on your wiring.
