What players and reviewers say

On the Bare Knuckle PAT Pend '63 Veneer Board

This is still very much a pre CBS sound, but it reflects a period when Fender single coils begin to gain a little more authority in the mids and low end.

The bridge pickup cuts through with authority, while the neck pickup delivers thick lead tones that never become muddy.

On the Seymour Duncan Custom Shop Psychedelic Strat

While the mids are a little relaxed, they walk a fine line between being balanced and avoid being exceptionally scooped as many single coils can be.
