Description
This item is in excellent working condition and barely used.
Both the Seymour Duncan Antiquity II Surfer Strat pickups and the Everything Axe Set suit Wong perfectly. But when Fender came calling about his new signature Stratocaster, it was the perfect opportunity to create his own set of signature pickups.
Wong already knew precisely what he wanted and who he wanted to make them. He asked Seymour Duncan to craft pickups with the clean, crisp tonality of the Antiquity IIs and the compressed, focused tone of the Everything Axe Set when playing with overdrive. And he wanted it all from a single set of single-coil pickups.
Done and done.
The Seymour Duncan Cory Wong Clean Machine single-coil pickups are the culmination of Cory Wong’s inspiring career, ear for tone, and Seymour Duncan’s decades of pickup crafting experience.
At their core, the Clean Machine pickups are a variation on his beloved Antiquity II Surfer Strat single-coils. They retain the vintage Strat clarity, warmth, and twang Wong relies on for his brand of funk and soul. But by using Alnico IV magnets in the neck and middle position, and a stack with Alnico V magnets in the bridge, as well as overwinding the bobbins, Wong’s pickups also love thick overdrive and easily dish out singing single-note solos. Not to mention, these pickups feature a pristine, unaged look, further distancing themselves from their Antiquity II ancestors.
