FREE shipping in the USA!
Beastly humbucker tones in a Strat® configuration - courtesy of Iron Maiden’s dynamic shredder Janick Gers.
Since first joining Iron Maiden in 1990, Janick Gers’ guitar mastery and songwriting have powered the band’s legendary live performances and albums. From fluid solos to hard hitting riffs, Janick’s unmatched energy comes through every note. On stage and in the studio, Janick has always gravitated towards Strat® style guitars. But to get a heavy metal sound powerful enough for Maiden’s music, he experimented with several Seymour Duncan Strat-sized humbuckers. His favorite combination became a JB Jr.™ for Strat in the Neck and Bridge positions, paired with a Hot Rails® for Strat pickup in the middle. The JB Jr. in the bridge delivers the classic JB humbucker sound – high output with plenty of punch for leads that sustain from here to eternity. In the neck it offers fullness for singing solos or delicate chime for rhythm and clean playing. Hot Rails in the Middle gives Janick the option of aggressive rhythm playing or more variety in his clean tones in the 2 & 4 positions.
These pickups all use small ceramic magnets, 4-conductor lead wire, and are vacuum wax potted for squeal-free operation. Now packaged together as a set, you can access Janick Gers’ signature sound in your Strat-style guitar.
Hand built in Santa Barbara, CA, this Strat set is available in multiple color options: with all matching pickups or Janick’s favorite black-parchment-black pickup color scheme.
