Pole Stagger

If you like your tone like your beer - strong, sweet and dark as night - we've got a delicious craft brew just for you! The Bootstrap Oatmeal Stout set emphasizes the bottom end without getting muddy. This is a compensated set with an overwound bridge that delivers grit and growl in a full bodied tone. These are relatively high output pickups, and well suited to those who like their tone a bit darker, or for balancing out an overly bright guitar.

 

We recommend choosing flat stagger pole pieces for modern guitars that have a fretboard radius of 9.0 inches or greater.
