HS-2 DP116
The HS-2 has history behind it. The HS series were the first humbucking Strat replacement pickups we made in the early 1980s. Since then, the HS-2 has become popular for two distinct qualities: in humbucking mode, its got a solid, natural sound thats cleaner and brighter than a conventional humbucker, while single coil mode creates one of the best vintage tones around. Because of its patented design, single coil mode is not as noisy as a standard single coil pickup. Taken together with the dead quiet humbucking mode, this is an excellent pickup to use with rack systems and high gain amps.Recommended for all positions
