Customer Feedback
After installing this upgrade in my Stratocaster, I stayed up all night playing it. -- Alvin Sears
Want MORE Versatility?
You can do the following things after you install this AMI upgrade:
(These are things you CANNOT do on your standard Stratocaster!)
- Turn on the Bridge and Neck pickups in normal-phase and in parallel to make it sound like a Telecaster.
- Put the Bridge and Neck pickups in in normal-phase and in series to give you a well-rounded Jazz sound.
- Put the Bridge and Neck pickups in reverse-phase and in parallel to get glass-shattering country twang sound.
- Put the Bridge and Neck pickups in reverse-phase and in series to get a more robust country twang sound.
- Put any / all pickups in normal-phase or reverse-phase.
- Put any / all pickups in parallel or series.
- You can turn on all three pickups at the same time.
- Our volume control gives you treble bleed for brilliance at any volume level.
- Our tone control lets you "tame" the harshness of the bridge pickup.
- You will have your original 5 pickup tones, but you will have 30 additional (35 total) pickup tones.
Gives you Brian May (guitarist for Queen) pickup sounds by putting any two or all three pickups into series (you cannot do this on your standard Stratocaster.) And when you put two pickups in series, you can turn on the remaining pickup in parallel (either in normal-phase or reverse-phase) and this is something Brian May's guitar cannot do. This upgrade gives you pickup tones that are so "Fat" -- they're OBESE!
EZ-Install upgrade gives you total control over your pickups. You can turn each pickup on in normal-phase or reverse-phase, and put them in parallel-connection or series-connection to give you 35 pickup tones.
This upgrade gives you the Signature Sounds of ALL guitar gods of every headliner group since the 1950s.
Used In The Studio, your upgraded Stratocaster gives you 35 pickup tones that are impossible to produce with a "stock" instrument.
Used On Stage, your upgraded Stratocaster gives you Signature Sounds that nobody can easily duplicate.
Nothing can give you MORE Pure Analog Pickup Tone Power than this Stratocaster upgrade.
