Set Strat Breathe

Since the beginning of ALH Effects we have been meeting and advising guitarists on the best choice of pickups. If the sounds of David Gilmour's famous "Black Strat" have always been very popular, the right pickup configuration remains a complex choice as there are so many mysteries and manufacturers. Faced with this more than real need, we decided with the prestigious brand Hepcat Pickups to join our skills by creating the "Breathe" set

This set is composed of three single-coil pickups that take up the "final" characteristics of the Black Strat from 1980 to nowadays. The neck and middle pickups are replicas of the January 1972 pickups found on the original guitar. The bridge pickup is a replica of the custom overwound pickup made for David Gilmour for The Wall tour.
The "Breathe" pickup set takes advantage of all the qualities that Hepcat has to offer. An airy, dynamic sound with a voicing specially designed for the Pink Floyd sound. These pickups also benefit from a great compatibility with the effects, real allies to restore the subtleties of your game to your pedals.

As the pickups are hand-wound by Hepcat, the average delivery time for a set is 2 weeks. This handcrafted manufacturing also allows us to offer you many options like a left-handed version. We can also adapt the set to your favorite Pink Floyd sound period (Pompeii, Dark Side, Animals etc...). The set comes standard with "parchment" colored caps but please contact us if you need another color.
