The GFS "Crunchy Rails" are wound the hottest of any GFS humbucker.
We
start with our twin stainless steel rails, polished to a high luster.
We wind these as hot as we can- a ferocious 16.2K for the bridge and a
strong 10.4K for the neck. The Crunchy Rails are tighter, more focused
versions of our Power Rails- and work the best with a good FAT
amplifier. Through a Soldano, VHT or Triple Recto they’re just amazing!
Make
no mistake- there’s no vintage stuff going on here- these slam HARD.
The mid-range is relaxed- not quite a “Scoop” but you get the picture.
High end and bottom end are pronounced- even old fashioned amps sound
supercharged with a pair of Crunchy Rails driving them. If you’re
playing through a thinner sounding amp then choose our Power Rails- If
your amp is happening, these are your pickups.
They're
meticulously vacuum potted in paraffin wax, and are four wire for easy
coil tapping. The non-ferrous base-plate is proudly stamped with the
famous "GFS" logo, and they feature extra long leads, 16" for the
Bridge units and a full 20" for the neck pickups!
As with all
GFS pickups, they come retail boxed complete with a correct height
black trim ring, screws and springs and our famous fully illustrated
wiring guide. |
