Description
The Bartolini 3XQ-N is a purpose-built replacement single coil for the middle or neck position on your Stratocaster. Bartolini’s approach to single coils has always been about pushing more signal to your amp while keeping the character that makes a Strat sound like a Strat, and the 3XQ-N delivers exactly that.
- North polarity winding, ideal for pairing with other pickups in your Strat’s switching setup
- Higher output than a vintage-spec single coil, giving you a fuller, thicker voice without sacrificing clarity
- Designed for middle or neck position use
- Black cover for a clean, understated look on any Strat
If you’ve felt like your neck or middle pickup lacks the push to really drive your amp or pedals, the 3XQ-N gives you that extra headroom while still speaking the single-coil language: airy top end, articulate note separation, and enough grit on tap when you dig in. It’s a straightforward drop-in upgrade for players who want more tone without rewiring their whole guitar’s personality.
Whether you’re rounding out a set with Bartolini’s other polarity options or simply swapping a tired stock pickup, the 3XQ-N is a smart, budget-friendly way to wake up your Stratocaster.
