History: These pickups are an innovative application to the jazz-style pickup using the solutions excavated through discovering the secrets of the Big Blade. Their aesthetic elements reflect the groundbreaking development of signature Nordstrand blade tone. These pickups are the weapon of choice for the war-time jazz player — the funk master that has all but ten seconds to shred his way to infinity before his bass based pride is compromised by an opponent of lesser tone — and have been rendered as such in order to supply the player with a diversifying sound that is broken down even further by its dual choice in winds.
