Bourbon City - The Home of Tone
With these pickups we've been aiming to hit that notch between clean and dirty, and the Bourbon City set delivers brilliantly on both fronts.
Crystal clear tones on clean, with every note carrying a halo of warmth that really lends itself to a single note style, but with a little overdrive, they've got a kick like the name suggests. With the warmth becoming heat, the clear tones becoming sharp - exactly how a humbucker should sound.
Built to 50s specs, avoiding the pit falls of the "overwound" styles that are abundant nowadays, balancing bright tops and crisp mids with a slightly subdued bass and glowing sustain thanks to the Alnico II magnets. The set carries a real presence in its sound, making it a capable combo for both rhythm and solo work.
Again, great for anyone who likes their Classic Rock, Hot Texas Blues - anything that really needs a hard working set of Humbuckers for both clean and overdriven work.
