Fralin Blues Special Stratocaster Set Tone Merchants

Whether playing clean or dirty, Blues feature a thicker midrange and rounder highs than vintage-voiced Strat models like our Real 54’s or Vintage Hots. Although they are an overwound Strat pickup, they are not too aggressive and feature a very open and dynamic tone. Blues sound more like a traditional Strat pickup, unlike our Steel Pole 42’s, which lean closer to the sound of a P90. Fralin Blues Special Strat Specs:

- 5% more coil than Fralin Vintage Hots: 5% more output and mids, 5% less highs.
- Modified Fender specifications, with more output and thicker tone.
- High output, but still has Fender sparkle.
- Compensated Bridge for even volume across all pickups.
- RW / RP Middle pickup for Hum Cancelling in positions 2 & 4.

- Two magnet staggers available for different fingerboard radiuses.
- Hand-wound with our “Sectioning" technique for unique, dynamic tone.
