EMG ST-65 Passive Alnico V Prewire Pickguard Black

The EMG ST-65 pickguard is loaded with pickups featuring Alnico 5 magnets for a classic Strat tone. Alnico 5 magnets have a magnetism of 1,000 Gauss giving the pickup a much more direct attack. Overall, the tone could be described as more classic. The low frequency response has a brightness to it that is carried through the mid-range. Alnico 5 results in a higher resonant frequency for a bright and clear response typical of Stratocaster pickups.
