From Bare Knuckle:
A bright and punchy mid ’60s voiced Strat coil set; solid bass response and a dynamic, woody character with fantastic snap in the high-end.
The Mother’s Milk single coils are a combination of the larger diameter Alnico V magnetic rod of the late ’50s and the introduction of 42AWG plain enamel wound coils with the CBS takeover at Fender. The hand-bevelled magnets and scatter-wound coils produce a tighter, deeper bottom-end with clear, full highs that really sing when overdriven and never sound thin or brittle. Mid range is hollow and woody with a little more grit and edge compared to Heavy Formvar wound coils for a crisp clean tone and more distinctive blues rock voice. As with all the Strat sets the bridge coil is wound slightly hotter for improved balance; vintage cloth ‘push back’ hookup is standard and there is a choice of stock or RWRP mid coil.
