The most sought after pickups on the market! The Ron Ellis 50/60 Strat set is one of the most sought after sets on the market. Designed to take the best from 1950s and 1960s-era sets, these go a step further to create their own classic tone! Ron Ellis' approach isn’t just per pickup, but within each pickup! The magnets for the 3 higher strings are Alnico 3, while the lower 3 strings are Alnico 5. The neck and middle use heavy formvar coated wire, yet the bridge uses plain enamel coated wire. The result is a pleasing 1960s rounded bass with sweet, non cutting yet still very present highs. The 50/60s set holds a high gain tone well with great sustain without ever sounding harsh. The middle position is extremely well matched and useful without either sounding weak. The Ron Ellis 50/60S is an amazing take on vintage Strat pickups which could possibly be better than the originals! Ron Ellis 50/60S Strat Pickup Set features: • One of the most sought after Strat sets on the market. • A modern take which could possibly be better than vintage examples! • 1960s rounded bass with sweet, non cutting yet still very present highs. • Neck DC Resistance: 5.5 kΩ to 6.5 kΩ. • Middle DC Resistance: 5.5 kΩ to 6.5 kΩ. • Bridge DC Resistance: 9.5 kΩ to 10 kΩ. • Middle Polarity: RWRP. • Handwound in the USA.
