Features

• Seymour Duncan / SP90-1 neck pickup: Wound with plain enamel wire on a 1950's Leesona winding machine, the SP90-1's tone is a faithful reproduction of the original soapbar pickups. Short, wide bobbins give a higher output and more powerful midrange than conventional single-coils for a fat neck pickup tone with clarity impossible to achieve with humbucking pickups.
• Seymour Duncan / Custom 5 TB-14 bridge pickup: Like a higher-output version of the classic '59 humbucker, the Custom 5 was developed in response to players customizing their SH-5 Custom or SH-11 Custom pickups with Alnico 5 magnets for a more vintage, less distorted tone but retaining a deeper bottom end than the stock '59
• Wilkinson VS50 Tremolo Bridge: Precision machined zinc saddles are matched with a hardened steel and knife-edge baseplate for outstanding feel, stability and tone.
• Locking Tuners: Precision, pro-spec Grover locking tuners lock strings automatically for stable tuning and ultra-fast string changes
• Graph Tech TUSQ XL nut and string tree: TUSQ XL is precision engineered to couple the strings vibrations to the neck and bring out hidden harmonics and richness in every note. 500 times more slippery than graphite, the Teflon-impregnated material eliminates string-binging and ensures tuning stability, even with massive string bends.
