Thx, Ernie -------------------------------------------- Info from Bonamassa website: Pre-CBS Fender Stratocasters® have long held the mystique and imagination of Fender’s biggest fans. By early 1964, Fender had started to build their Strat® pickups with gray flatwork, and these gray bottom pickups were known for a notably punchy sound and higher output. Finding a pre-CBS Strat® with these rare pickups can be a challenge. However, as Joe Bonamassa discovered, sometimes looking beyond a guitar’s originality can lead to uncovering a truly exceptional example. Joe’s 1964 Stratocaster® started its life with a three-tone sunburst finish and stock gray-bottom pickups, but was refinished with a unique “Greenburst”, which instantly captivated Joe. With the powerful sounding pickups, great playability, and striking look, Joe knew it was “an instant star”. Lucky for guitar players everywhere, Joe Bonamassa has once again collaborated with the Seymour Duncan Custom Shop to offer the magic sound of one of his favorite instruments through a new set of signature gray bottom Strat® pickups. The Joe Bonamassa “Greenburst” Stratocaster® Set is made with period-correct wiring and staggered alnico 5 magnets. The gray bottom flatwork is pad printed with Joe’s signature, and the first 500 sets include limited edition packaging and a certificate of authenticity signed by Joe and Seymour W. Duncan. Fans of Joe Bonamassa have seen the Greenburst Strat® light up the stage on tour with Joe, and now the powerful sound of “the coolest, most hideous guitar” in Joe’s collection can be attained in a Strat® of your own.

Jakeboy Posted February 22 Posted February 22 GLWTS…interesting that the neck DC resistance is greater than the bridge. BITD, the builders just grabbed pickups out of a bucket. I do love a good grey bottom Strat bridge pickup compared to the 50s winds. Stronger and bolder. 1 Quote
Saul Goodman Posted February 26 Posted February 26 I'll take them. I need all the tone help with my Strat I can get. 2 1 Quote
velorush Posted February 26 Posted February 26 Thank you @Saul Goodman! I was resisting as much as I could (I still have a couple of spare Strat sets in boxes!) but that was a steal! 1 Quote
