Eddie Van Halen RELIC Vintage correct Stratocaster Frankenstrat BRIDGE EVH

Inspired by Mr. Van Halen´s “Frankenstrat” guitar.
RELIC / AGED – Humbucker bridge pickup

Eddies`s humbucker bridge pickup was mounted directly to the wood/body of the guitar. To install this pickup to the wood you will have to re-drill the mounting holes on the baseplate so they can accept wood screws. We can do that for you – you can leave a note at the checkout page or send us a message.

Vintage correct PAF style humbucker pickup in the bridge position:

– black BUTYRATE bobbins with 49,2mm spacing. The pickup has to be installed at a slight angle to compensate for the differing string spacings of the Fender tremolo and the PAF spaced humbucker(49,2mm).

– LONG legs on the nickel silver base plate. These “legs” are too long to fit in a regular strat bridge pickup cavity. Total height of this pickup with LONG legs is approx. 27mm.
If you want SHORT LEGS and/or F-SPACED bridge pickup send us a message and we will work it out.
Each pickup is built to order.

– AWG42 PLAIN ENAMEL WIRE ( HOT / overwound – 8,5kOhm @ 20°C)

– rough cast AlNiCo 2 magnet bar
– maple spacer
– machined humbucker bar
– Nickel plated slugs and screws
– vintage style braided output wire
