Parchment White Pure, full-bodied early 50s single coil set with exceptional natural sustain and low string pull from the Alnico III magnets. Apache single coils are based on the r ounder, fatter tones of the original 54 to 57 coils. Deep bottom end with a bell-like chime in the highs and rich, wide mid range produce a crystal-clear clean tone without ever sounding harsh or thin. Overdriven tones sound full and crunchy with plenty of body for single note work. Scatter-wound by hand with vintage correct Heavy Formvar wire, the bridge coil is wound a little hotter to give better balance across the set. The calibrated Alnico III magnets are hand-bevelled and set in fibre board flat work in either the original 54 stagger with low G magnet or the more common 56 stagger. The low magnetic pull of the Apache allows for excellent dynamics and perfect intonation. Show more
