11203-33-BK-PGD This fully loaded Strat pickguard was spec’d out by Yngwie himself to ensure that with this setup your Strat will deliver The Fury. The YJM Fury Loaded strat pickguard is ready to drop-in to your Stratocaster with an 11 screw-hole USA pattern. This prewired setup includes a calibrated set of the YJM Fury signature pickups, and the high-speed no-lube YJM volume potentiometer that meets Yngwie’s demands for speed and responsiveness. These handmade pickups are built and loaded into the pickguards in Santa Barbara, CA. The bridge model is designed to handle Yngwie’s chordal onslaught, and it delivers a precise, articulate response that has just the right amount of high end without sounding harsh or brittle. The bridge model is wound hotter to provide better balance with the neck & middle pickups. The neck and middle model is designed to bring out the balance of Yngwie’s fluid left-hand technique with his broad mix of right-hand pick attack for a tone that is sweet and smooth. There is just the right amount of high end to make this pickup extremely articulate, and especially responsive to dynamics. Back in the 80s we patented a special bottom coil that actually injects negative hum into the pickup circuit and at the end of the production process, and we fine tune each pickup for maximum noise cancelation. You get all of the great qualities a classic Strat pickup, and none of the hum with our Stack pickups.
