The cool looks are only surpassed by the amazing tone!
Designed from the ground up right here in our Boston shop, all new molds and mounting brackets, all custom designed by us. Fits ALL STRATS with NO MODS!!! Don't fall for imitators, only Pro-Tubes are stamped with the GFS Logo on the bottom!
Look-
everyone knows the old Dano lipstick tube pickups looked and sounded
really cool. Two major problems. First of all they're some wacky size,
and I'm not a big fan of cutting a huge hole in my prized Strat.
Secondly, they're pretty tame, output wise. Sound cool, not great for
modern music.
GFS to the rescue!! Wound with Alnico II magnets
and wound to be BIG sounding, we give the bridge pickup a big, huge 8K
output, the middle pickup (Reverse wound/reverse polarity for noise
canceling performance) a stout 6K, and the Neck pickup a vintage 4.9K.
On my own Strat they're big and warm, CRAZY jangly, ridiculous bloom
and sparkle on every chord, silky smooth soloing on the neck pickup...
A calibrated set of all three is the killer rig, or use three 4.9K pickups for an authentic vintage sound.
These
are HIGH END Boutique Quality pickups- using Alnico II magnets, vintage
style plain enamel coil wiring, standard Strat hole spacing and
brilliant lipstick tube covers. These are our own proprietary design.
I
believe these to be the best sounding, best made lipstick tube pickups
on the market, regardless of price. (Oh yeah- we're the cheapest by
FAR!) |
