With the introduction of the double-blade pickup in 1983, Joe Barden set a new standard for performance and fidelity in electric guitar pickups. The goals were to enhance tone while faithfully maintaining the inherent sound qualities of each individual guitar, get more output, and cut down on noise. With Joe Barden pickups, you'll experience all of the classic tones of your guitar, completely free of hum or noise, magnified and enhanced to a level you might not have imagined possible. See for yourself why Joe Barden pickups are regarded as "the best pickups on the planet" and which of rock's most prominent artists have used them.

This Barden S-Deluxe Bridge Pickup gives you maximum dynamics, complexity, and clarity without high-end harshness. The tone of the S-Deluxe is absolutely Strat in character, but with greatly expanded fidelity and a balanced frequency response. Of course, hum and noise are completely eliminated. These pickups are incredibly sensitive, giving you a wide range of tones and output levels simply by adjusting the distance of the pickup from the strings.
The "in-between" positions are wonderfully hollow, and the bridge pickup has the strength, snap, and twang typically experienced only in Telecasters. The unique staggered-blade design of the bridge pickup, common to all Barden single-coil sized bridge pickups, eliminates drop-outs on the outer strings.
This is designed specifically to fit standard Strat body routs with no modifications to the instrument. The pickups utilize 4 conductor shielded cable to allow for any possible wiring combination and are supplied with wiring diagrams and mounting hardware to facilitate installation.
