The EMG-GC21 SA pickup and pickguard set combines the attributes of the early Stratocasters sound but with an added midrange response and higher output, giving it "bell-like" ringing harmonics and increased sustain. One single Alnico bar magnet delivers classic overdrive with a smooth midrange distortion, while still retaining the familiar high-end of a single-coil pickup. These characteristics provide greater versatility than what is normally found in single-coil guitar pickups. Favorites of Steve Lukather and David Gilmour just to name two, the EMG-GC21 SA Set comes with volume and tone controls, and a five-position switch which is all ready to mount onto your pickguard.

Package Includes: EMG's exclusive Quik-Connect cables (3), prewired control set including volume, 2 tone controls, 5-way selection switch (black & white knobs), output jack, and battery clip, screws & springs.

This product is amazing. I installed it in less than a half hour and was playing in no time. The only way to describe the quality is that I went from Toyota to Rols Royce in a half hour. The pickup ups set was easy to install and I found that the tremolo access minus a spring is where the batter found it's new home. Awesome product.

I had just bought a 1989 Japanese strat and I wasn't so convinced about buying it at first just because it was made in Japan.. I was so used to playing ibanez guitars that playing a strat just wasn't my style.. well I ended up buying the start, of course it has all the original things on it so first thing I changed were the pickups, so I bought these EMG's, I couldn't be any happier now! if you want a really clean and strong tone, these are the ones! I like to play mostly a sort of latin rock with a mix of blues and funk. So these definitely fit my style. great great tone!! I strongly recommend these for you! very quiet also! it also has a kick when you hit that distortion. Every note you play couldn't come out any clearer!! AWESOME!

I've had this on my strat for about a year now and I love it. The pickups are so perfect for everything, all the notes come out cristal clear and beautiful sound. It really has life to it and is able to sond good through almost anything even an epiphone starter pack amp. Overall I think its a bit over priced but its a very nice prewired set.
