The Joe Bonamassa Cradle Rock Strat Set

  • Joe Bonamassa first laid eyes on the “Cradle Rock” Strat as a teenager at the Philadelphia Guitar Show in 1994. He purchased the then-pristine 1963 Sunburst Fender Stratocaster, and it became one of the most sentimental pieces in his collection. Named after the Rory Gallagher tune Joe recorded on his debut album, the pickups in this Strat had a distinctive powerful sound that he wanted to share with guitarists chasing this seminal tone.
    The Seymour Duncan Custom Shop engineered the period-correct wind, aged the magnets, and color-matched the covers until Joe deemed these pickups a “spot-on” recreation. Crafted in the Custom Shop, the Cradle Rock Strat Set is limited to 1000 units, with Joe’s printed signature on each pickup.

      @@crucified-music Yeah, can't really agree with you there, man. Every Texas hot Antiquity pickup I've ever purchased has been above and beyond amazing. Also, how the hell do you know that they're not good? They may not be your cup of tea, but they haven't even shipped yet, dude.

    I was a Duncan endorser back in the early to mid 1980’s when I was playing guitar with Jerry Reed. Seymour treated us incredible. He even rewound the bridge humbucker on my 5-string electric mandolin. Thank you.

    Put it in the amp fund boys and girls. Save save save, then buy the very best amp you can. Think of what has really improved over the years. Trust me, I am a hotrodder of guitars with the best of them, but you won't get the big changes until you get the good amp and a quality signal chain which includes pots, caps and switches. 400 bucks of pickups isn't gonna go far with five bucks of wiring, the guitar cable from a strat pack and a Line 6 spider.

    I'm in agreement, that every guitar needs different things to bring out the best in its natural frequencies. Identify the strong and weak characteristics it has naturally, then accentuate the desirable tones and eliminate the not soo great frequencies. Very seldom does ANY guitar have it all right from the get go. You gotta work at it usually. If you know what your after, it makes things much easier.

  • @f.duranleau4416
    @f.duranleau4416 Год назад

    I own a ash body strat that has a rosewood fingerboard and it sounds really good. The pickups are the Seymour Duncan Antiquity Strat Texas Hot but the bridge pickup is now a neck pickup because the original Antiquity Strat Texas Hot bridge pickup was too hot to my ears at 9.8 KOhms. I bought an additional Antiquity Strat Texas Hot neck pickup (6.3 KOhms) that I installed at the bridge position and the guitar is now perfectly balanced. And the magnets of these Antiquity Strat Texas Hot pickups are Alnico 2 magnets that sound great with an ash body Strat.

      @bryangarcia662 great pickups. Got a very forward profile, if that makes sense. Good mids, nice thump in the bass. No ice pick like a 50s pickups. In comparison to 69s, much more girth, slightly less transparency. Really good separation under gain.
