NEW! Rio Grande SSH Set for Strat

The new Rio Grande SSH pickup set is perfect for the player that wants the versatility of the classic Strat® arrangement, but with more power and  relatively stock looks. This new set consists of:

  • Vintage Tallboy pickup for the neck: Standard size ANILCO magnets, and wound for that great slightly scooped neck tone that's glassy but never harsh.
  • Halbreed pickup for the middle: Slightly larger 5/32" ANILCO magnets and a few more windings for just a hint more warmth and midrange. Reverse wound for hum cancelling.
  • Bladerunner Bridge Pickup - A true humbucking pickup for more punch and drive, but with the balance and clarity needed to play nicely with single coils.

The folks at Rio Grande make pickups that truly capture the essence of vintage tone while also providing the output and presence needed for today's music. The SSH set offers up the best of vintage and modern sounds with no guitar modifications, and no downsides in looks, flexibility or tone. Note: The Bladerunner is wired four conductor. If you don't plan to split the pickup, solder the red and white wires together and insulate with shrink sleeve or electrical tape. The black wire is hot, and the green and shield are tied together for ground.
