Application
High output true single-coil. Recommended for blues, classic rock, garage, heavy rock, classic metal and nu-metal.
Description
Similar tonality to the SSL-4 Quarter-Pound Flat but with a staggered magnet pattern. Like the SSL-4, the hand polished, quarter-inch diameter magnets are matched with a powerful coil winding to deliver great sustain. Does not use a cover.
Complete setup
Calibrated set available with RW/RP middle pickup. Many players use an SSL-7 in the bridge position with vintage output pickups, like SSL-1’s, in the neck and middle for tonal versatility.
Guitars
For any balanced Strat®. Works especially well with rosewood fingerboards.
Available mods
Reverse wound, reverse polarity (RW/RP) middle pickups for hum canceling in positions “2” and “4” on the five-way switch. Tapped version for dual output levels.
