Super Rocking Nitro Bucking Cowboys
Kent Armstrong is the second generation of guitar wizards the Armstrong family has produced, indeed Kent’s own son Aaron now famously creates pickups too and Kent’s father Dan ran a great guitar repair shop in New York City. With such a lineage its unsurprising to learn that their pickups are some of the best in the world and have been used by great such as Jimmy Page, Rory Gallagher, Matt Bellamy and even members of the TonePedia team have them in some of their own favourite guitars. Kent himself work alongside the world famous pickup designer Bill Lawrence before moving to the UK.
A louder-than-standard Strat single-coil, these work great with high gain / rock style of playing. A big emphasis on bass and mid frequencies. A simple way to thicken up the tone of a Strat.
