Frequently Asked Questions
Voice 1 is closer to a vintage-style single coil, but with increased clarity and less brittle high-end. Voice 2 offers a thicker, more compressed sound akin to a hotter, overwound single coil.
They are designed as a drop-in replacement for standard single-coil pickups, but always check your guitar’s routing to ensure proper fit.
While versatile, the Gristle-Tone excels in genres that benefit from a balanced, articulate tone with a bit of extra punch – think rock, blues, and country; they’re less suited for very heavy metal or jazz.
