The Wiring

Option 1. SSS // ObsidianWire™ Custom Blender for Strat®

  • Stratocaster Blender Mod
  • Play Neck + Bridge Pickups Together
  • Master Tone
  • Master Volume

With a master volume and master tone control the Custom Blender Harness packs your traditional Strat® tones into a smaller space, leaving the third tone control free.

This becomes the blender control, adding the ability to blend the neck and bridge pickups in together. This is amazing for adding a range of musical mids to your lead tone (like the bell like effects David Gilmour gets in his signature Strat) or for adding some twang to your rhythm, just like you find in the middle position on a Tele®. When you need a complete wall of sound, you can even mix all three pickups together by flicking the five way switch to position 2 or 4

Option 2. HSS // Custom Lambertones HSS for Strat®

  • A Lambertones // ObsidianWire™ Collab.
  • Custom built for HSS Strat®
  • TUNABLE SPLIT COIL (for fuller single coil sounds)
  • Pickup Matched Tone Controls (500k & 250k)
  • IGNEOS™ Firm Grip Pots
  • Fits Fender® HSS Strat®
  • Fits Squier® HSS Strat® with Adjustments

The Custom Lambertones HSS is the result of a design collaboration between Lambertones Pickups, and ObsidianWire, with a TUNABLE SPLIT COIL control for your humbucker, and Obsidians new range of super sturdy, 'Firm Grip' IGNEOS™ tone and volume controls.

The Pickups

Option 1. SSS // Lambertones Triple Shot

Based on John Mayer's favorite 1964 vintage Strat, but with enhanced clarity and consistency. Alnico magnets paired with a unique wire and tension combination produce beautifully smooth and velvety lead lines. The Triple Shot features a slightly chunky and springy low-end, clean and crisp highs, massive quack in positions 2/4, and all without a heavy and overbearing mid-range.

Neck 3.6k / Mid 4.15k / Bridge 3.95k DCR

Option 2. HSS // Lambertones Triple Shot & Grinder

The Triple Shot set as above with the upgrade to a Lambertones 'Grinder' humbucker in the bridge (Nickel Cover)

The GRINDER is higher output, and has been compared to a vintage P.A.F. with a modern flare. The GRINDER pushes breakup at the source while still maintaining incredible note articulation.

Neck 3.6k / Mid 4.15k / 6.05k (AlNiCo VIII)
