Montances Special Strat SSS Pickup

Vintage articulation meets modern authority. The Montances Special Strat SSS Set is a masterclass in tonal flexibility, expertly blending the glassy chime of the golden era with the muscular drive required by contemporary players. Handcrafted with our proprietary winding technique to minimize capacitance, this set features a custom-calibrated wind: the neck and middle positions sing with crystalline clarity, while the overwound bridge pushes your amplifier into rich, blooming overtones.

It is the ultimate toolkit for the discerning guitarist who refuses to compromise between vintage soul and modern cut.

Designed and handcrafted in the Philippines.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  • Q: Will this set fit my standard Stratocaster?
    A: Yes. We utilize standard SSS routing and 52mm spacing, designed to drop seamlessly into most Fender® Stratocaster® and high-end Strat-style instruments.
  • Q: Are these noiseless pickups?
    A: These are true vintage-style single coils. However, the RWRP middle pickup allows for hum-cancellation in positions 2 and 4, preserving the authentic single-coil character in isolated positions.
  • Q: Can I order individual pickups?
    A: Yes, though we highly recommend the full calibrated set to ensure matched polarity and the intended balanced output across all switch positions.
