Description

The Gravity Storm Neck Model pickup was designed for Steve Vai, and are the next step in his pickup evolution. The pickup is named after a song on his album, Steve Vai: The Story of Light. Steve used to describe pickup sounds in terms ofspecific frequency responses. Now he describes it asflavor and texture. Theflavor of The Gravity Storm Neck model is sweet and warm, but the texture hasan edge to it. It has the depth of a humbucker with some of the bite ofasingle-coil. Most neck humbuckers don’t do a great job at reproducing pick harmonics, especially if they have a warm sound. This one’s different, particularly with 24-fret guitars. The combination of fat neck position tone with harmonics is something we haven’t often encountered before. It has a throaty quality that sounds like a cross between a humbucker and a single-coil.
