Intonation set with a Peterson Strobe Tuner. 1 Set Grover Rotomatic 18:1 Tuners.
1 Fender Tremolo with large Mass Brass Block W/Premium Stainless-Steel Saddles. 1 Black Switch Tip Knob. 1 Set D'Addario 10-46 Strings. 1 Set Guitar Madness Alnico 5 62z Single Coil Pickups. 1 Oak Grigsby 5-Way Switch.
1 Short Arm Mini Toggle Switch. 3 Stew Mac Branded CTS 250K Potentiometers (Stew Mac Branded = Premium CTS Potentiometers). 047uf Capacitors (Neck and Middle Tone Cap).
1 Treble Bleed Orange Drop. Both the Pickguard and Body Cavity have been Copper Shielded. Saddles are radius to the Fretboard. Tremolo set for 1/2 step drop. The Pickguard is equipped with a Mini Toggle Switch.
When the 5-Way Switch is in the Bridge Position the Neck and Bridge Pickups are Active. In the Middle/Bridge Position, All Pickups are Active.This is sometimes called the Gilmour Mod. Named after David Gilmour of Pink Floyd Fame. When the 5-Way Switch is in the Middle/Bridge Position, both Tone Pots are Active allowing you to blend the tone of the two Pots.
And, because this has 7-Way Switching, there are even more blending options. A very nice option indeed! A Treble Bleed allows the highs to pass through the Volume pot as you roll off the Volume. What this does is keep the Brightness and the Clarity of the pickups the same as you roll down the volume.
You have the same clarity and brightness at 10 as you would at 9,8,7,6 and so on. This is a super nice option! Guitar Madness 62 Z's Alnico 5 Staggered Pole PUPS. These are excellent sounding Alnico 5 Pickups. They have a nice vintage output. Replicated to sound like the classic 60's single coils. Surf, Country, Blues, Vintage Rock and Rock are all in this Pickups' wheelhouse. One of my personal favorites. Guitar Madness 62z's sound like Strat Pickups should! You get a lot of bang for your buck on this one.We only use top of the line components and that makes all the difference!
