Amalfitano SVL Daytona Matt Schofield Pickup Set 2000s – White

This is a complete set of Amalfitano Stratocaster pickups. I pulled these from a Strat that was traded in. I called Jerry Amalfitano himself and gave him the ohms and specs and he said they are the SVLs designed for Matt Schofield. BTW, these are no longer available and hard to find. They are mounted in a single ply guard with 8 screw holes like an old 50s Stratocaster and they are wired with one volume and two tones just like an old strat and also have a treble bleed on the volume pot. The protective plastic is still on the guard and it all looks like new. Sounded killer in the strat but I have that guitar sold and the customer wanted Fralins so thats what he got. Here is what I found online.

The SVL Daytona pickup set was developed exclusively by Simon Law, Guitar Tech and Guitar Builder in the UK for recording artist Matt Schofield. Very similar to my ’62 set, the SVL Daytona pickup set utilizes Alnico 3 grade magnets, a magnet stagger that is reminiscent of the 60’s Strat pickups, and Formvar magnetic wire wound to approximately 6K ohms for both the Neck and RWRP Middle pickups. The Bridge pickup is wound slightly hotter to about 6.4K and incorporates a steel grounded base plate affixed to the bottom of the pickup.

Gaining similar effects of a Telecaster Bridge baseplate, it channels the midrange more while also reducing the shrilly highs. What you’ll experience is a very useable, warmer, vintage sounding bridge pickup that’ll sizzle when dimed. All Amalfitano Pickup Strat sets are assembled using vintage color-coded cloth covered wire leads and are lightly wax potted to reduce the chance of microphonics.
