Full Description

Wonderfully defined, beautifully versatile

...it's exactly how your sound should be. And a pair of Broad'Tron pickups allow for just that. They give you the freedom you need to achieve the exact tone you're after, even when the gain is cranked up high. These humbuckers offer a superbly tight bass response and crystal-clear highs.
