You can use the push/pull control to further control your tone, whilst a three-way toggle allows you to switch between the two pickups. Tight lows, hammering mids, and blazing highs - you'll love chugging and soloing with these responsive humbuckers by your side.

It's crafted to an ultra thin 'U' profile, meaning you'll be able to shred all day long on this perfectly crafted tool.

An Ultra Access design enables you to reach those lofty frets which greater precision and ease, enhancing the fluidity of your screeching solos.
