Installing an Invader changes your guitar's DNA. No matter how dangerous your stock pickup claims to be, the Invader will transform any guitar into the mean, heavy sounding beast you always knew it could be. The invader's power comes from the combination of specially overwound coils and three large ceramic magnets, along with its striking oversized metal oxide pole pieces. These expand the overall magnetic field and widen the frequency spectrum, which is why every note played through an Invader sounds so rich. it delivers the thickest and deepest, lower end response of any passive pickup we make. Chords sound full and almost subsonic with lower tunings, and balance nicely with the crunchy treble that keeps output setup. Hand built in our Santa Barbara, CA factory, the Invader uses a three large ceramic bar magnets, oversized metal oxide poles, nickel silver bottom plate, 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options, and is vacuum wax potted for squeal-free performance.
