Description
The Z-Core 5 Overwound Set is a step up in output from the Modern Set. The neck and middle pickups are targeted at an output just slightly hotter than and true “vintage” output, but because of our unique design still retain the vintage response. The bridge is a modern high output “boutique” flavor of Strat, with a powerful, round but still very Stratty attack like our Legacy Series SV5. This set works best with 500 k controls. Select kit 1 or kit 2 (if you want a blend option). Kits ending in "A" substitute a no load tone pot for the neck and middle (a no load master tone with the blend option).
