It possesses an even, dynamic response, and its adjustable pole pieces allow the guitarist to fine tune the string balance and dial in just the right amount of punch. A whole set of Little '59s will deliver a rich, open sound: or a bridge Little '59 matched up with Duckbuckers™ in the neck and middle will provide a best-of-both-worlds '59 Les Paul®/'57 Strat® tone.
