Shark Attack Guitars-Pickups & Electrics
All standard pick-ups are top-quality, mostly of U.S origin.

The "Great White" as standard, sports 2 high-powered RAZOR Humbucking pick-ups.






Combinations of single coil, double coil stacked Humbucking
or double Humbucking ganged can be fitted on request. This particular model sports a coventional style distortion humbucker at neck and a vertically stacked coil humbucker ( The Blade from RAZOR ) at bridge.
There are many factors governing your choice of pickups not least , their compatability with your chosen amplifier. REMEMBER, the most powerful pickup does not mean you will get the loudest guitar.
Generally, loud pickups are quite "woolly" sounding and it's not the pickup that provides volume; that is the amplifier's job!!
The pickup will determine the level at which the input of the amplifier starts to distort, and once distorting, it will not affect the output of the amplifier, only the tone.
Many of the finest Metal players play variations of the Fender Strat and get a good tone with a relatively low powered pickup................JIMI HENDRIX  being one !!
Most of my STANDARD guitars come equiped with either TELECASTER single coil or RAZOR  Humbuckers ( either vertically stacked coils like the BLADE or parallel mounted, like THE DISTORTION humbuck).
With the single coil TELE pickups you can acheive a clear crisp clarity BUT combined with the natural RESONANT qualities of  REAL hardwoods, a longer sustain characteristic.

To the right is a standard range single coil pickup of Telecaster style with enhanced resonant qualities due to using one solid selection of highest quality hardwood.  PLEASE NOTE: humbucker pickups that visually resemble single coil pickups can be fitted to this telecaster setup (see RATTLE AND HUM on ONE-OFF page)
But remember, whatever YOU want, I shall fit  !!!!!!!
