Chime and Sparkle - This flat-pole version of our Vintage Staggered for Strat delivers a shimmering tone with all the chime and sparkle
✓
Even String Balance - The Vintage Flat for Stratocaster, with its flat Alnico 5 rod magnets, provides an even string balance for modern guitars with a larger neck radius, and players using lighter gauge strings.

Smoother Tone - The flat poles of this pickup give it a little less edge for an overall smoother tone. Aside from the flat pole pieces, we use all of the same materials to build these as we do our vintage Fender style single coil pickups.
