Extra Power - Quarter inch rod magnets give this pickup extra output and punch, while the staggered pole pattern delivers an edgier tone with gritty midrange.

Sparkly Midrange Harmonics - Hand polished Alnico 5 rod magnets deliver sparkly midrange harmonics, great sustain, and big, full chords.
Versatile Setup - Use a set of three for a huge sounding Strat setup, or pair with SSL-5 Custom Staggered Strat in the neck and middle for added versatility.
