The Muscle Behind Fender’s American Performer Strats
There’s been lots of chatter about the stellar tone of Fender’s American Performer Stratocasters. Well, now you can inject your Strat with the same coveted sound. This trio of Yosemite single-coil pickups delivers increased output, thanks to flat-staggered pole pieces, while a mixture of Alnico II and Alnico IV magnets and plain enamel-coated wire ensure an expressive, well-defined sound that’s both musical and dynamic. Beyond that, shellac coating keeps feedback to a minimum, while a reverse-wound/reverse-polarity (RWRP) middle pickup takes hum out of the equation. At Sweetwater, we’ve dialed in everything from chimey, glassy cleans to chunky grind with Yosemite pickups — the best of classic and modern tones. Rich, articulate, and uncompromising, this Yosemite Stratocaster Pickup Set is a must-have upgrade for your Strat.
