Hotter and Fatter Bridge - The Saturday Night Special humbuckers are voiced to be a little hotter and fatter in the bridge position, perfect for replicating legendary late-70s arena rock tones.
Clear Neck Pickup - The neck pickup is designed to be a little clearer and also less wooly, providing a perfect match for the bridge.
Clear Overdriven Tone - These humbuckers are more aggressive than vintage 50s style P.A.F.'s but without the compression of most high gain pickups, bridging the output level gap between vintage 50's and modern humbuckers.
Warm and Musical - The cleans produced by these pickups are warm and musical, with high end clarity that is never harsh.
Made in USA - The Saturday Night Special Set is made in Santa Barbara, California, and comes standard with four-conductor wiring, maple spacer, and short mounting legs.
