Strat Pickups
Four guitars that have stood the test of time
So we all think all certain guitars when we hear the word - a guitar that just to us, symbolises what our favourite players uses to achieve that sound and look damn cool while doing it. Here we'll view some of the guitars that have turned mortals into gods.
The Fender Strat. Made back in 1954 by guitaring genuis Leo Fender, the Stratocaster must be THE guitaring icon. There are hundreds of copies on the market, but people know a 'proper' Strat just from the tone. Considered a blues and rock guitar -having been in the hands of many of these players, who find it hard to go back to other guitars afterwards. Buddy Holly, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton and Richie Blackmore are the names that come to mind when thinking of Strat player. The Stratocaster just goes from strength to strength.
The Fender Telecaster. Considered more of a country guitar than anything else, it may surprise people to know that the telecaster also has its share of rock players. Jim Root of the metal band Slipknot, and John 5, Marilyn Manson's former guitarist being two of them. Originally known as the Broadcaster, the Telecatser was created in 1949. A law suit saw Fender back pedal and change the name to Telecaster, and the rest is history. Famous Tele players include Andy Summers (the Police), Joe Strummer (the Clash) and Keith Richards (the Rolling Stones) -showing the versitility of the guitar.
The Gibson Les Paul. Created by Gibson with Les Paul, the guitar was created in 1952. Originally the Les Paul had single coil pickups, which were changed in '57 for the humbucker pickups that the Les Paul is famous for today. More players than you know have played a Les Paul at some stage -some may surprise you -Clapton, Hendrix and others. Notable Les Paul players are Slash of Guns and Roses and Zakk Wylde, Ozzy Osbournes main guitarist.
Gibson SG. in 1961 this was going to be a new Les Paul guitar -the only problem being that the man himself didnt like the design. Renamed 'sg', which stands for solid guitar, it is much lighter than the Les Paul guitar. Famous SG weilders includer Tony Iommi, the father of heavy metal and Angus Young of rockers AC/DC.
