Frequently asked questions
Is there any tonal difference between Black and Cream finishes?
No. Both versions use identical ceramic bar magnets, split-pole designs, and wax potting. Finish color has no effect on tone, output, or hum cancellation.
Which finish is better for blues and rock?
Both excel equally in blues, rock, and indie—finish is purely visual. Choose the color that matches your guitar's body and hardware.
Can I rewire these with a push/pull switch for hotter tones?
Yes. Both models feature 4-conductor lead wire and are series-wiring capable via push/pull switch or mini-toggle for flexible tonal sculpting.
Do these work in neck, middle, and bridge positions?
Both are optimized for neck and middle positions on Stratocasters. They are drop-in replacements requiring no routing modifications.
