We can create anything in our South Carolina Custom Shop, built by a small team of dedicated luthiers and techs. Sometimes they take the shape of artist signature models, Relic’d vintage-style and sometimes just limited-edition guitars. For the most part they are one of a kind-each slightly different. Body routed for HSH configuration, which is able to accept universal pickup settings and various pick guard styles with different cutouts. The body underneath the pick guard is the part of the guitar that is routed. this body is routed for HSH configuration, and able to accept universal pickup choices and various pick guard styles with different cutouts. For example, if you want a S-S-H, or H-S-S, S-S-S, H-H and S-H configurations. The body rout already cut, will accommodate all of these configs. All that is necessary is to decide which pickup configuration, then add the pickups to a guard to accommodate the pickup selection YOU need. Then drop back into your guitar with 3 perfectly fitting pickup slots.

THIS GUITAR HAS A WORKING BRIDGE TONE CONTROL! !
In MOST Fender Stratocaster guitars the tone control doesn’t work for the bridge-only pickup on a Stratocaster.
It works on a few, approximately 1% of Stratocaster guitars whether made by Fender or by Squier, or Affinity, Fender Japan, Fender Taiwan, Fender Mexico, American (circa 1991) or Fender China and more have no tone control on the bridge pickup. The tone controls do work for the other four switch positions.
Why?
It was just a design that was only meant to please the inventor, Mr. Leo Fender.
Leo wanted a pickup position that sounded similar to a steel guitar. So now in Fender guitars the bridge pickup selection has no tone control wired to it whatsoever and no one at Fender Corp. since then has seemed to notice. They have failed to hear what guitarists for years have asked. Can we simply have a tone control on our bridge pickup? YES.
Also:
Recessed Heel Crest added for:
- Faster playing neck
- Improved access and hand comfort
- Smoother note bending
- Easier play with less stress on fingering hand
- Cleaner, sharper notes
- Improved, responsive hand-tapping
- Effortless sweep arpeggios
- Excellent for trills and hammer-ons
- High-Speed pull-offs

The EMG Active pickups :
The SA Set combines the attributes of the early Strat™ sounds with added mid-range response and higher output, giving the pickup “bell-like” and pinch harmonics with increased sustain. This active single coil set, loaded with Alnico V bar magnets sounds bright and airy, with a rich bottom end. With internal shielding and a low impedance preamp, you get virtually noiseless pickups without sacrificing a true single coil tone. The Alnico 5 bar magnets allow for the output to remain balanced during big string bends that makes for a beautifully articulate tone. The creamy mid-range warmth creates subtle blues tones that are clear, strong and expressive. Experience the reason why players like David Gilmour, Steve Lukather, Larry Carlton… have relied on EMG single coil pickups in the studio and on the stage for years.
For a better, cleaner Low and High sound spectrum:
1-error-correction of signals with enhanced clarity
2- preserve high end frequencies
3-improved taper when rolling back your volume control
Your Guitar is now more functional with Haywire Custom Guitars Innovations added.
