Summary
Our authentic period correct single coil pickup set that
delivers all the chime and bell tone enjoyed by Stratocaster players in
the 50s.
Description
Our Vintage
Staggered for Stratocaster pickups use hand ground alnico 5 rod magnets
and heavy Formvar mag wire with a special wind pattern to produce that
bright, glassy, bell tone with all of the bounce and sparkle youd expect
from the best 50s Strat pickups. The treble attack is crisp and
immediate, while the low end remains articulate and focused. Chords ring
out with clear note to note separation. This three pickup set includes a
standard wound neck pickup, an RWRP, reverse wind reverse polarity,
middle pickup for clucky in-between tones, and a slightly overwound
bridge pickup for easier pickup balance. Since 1978, weve been building
all of our vintage Fender style single coil pickups with the right color
and thickness of Forbon flatwork, along with the period correct magnet
stagger. Each pickup comes complete with waxed and tinned cloth pushback
hook-up wires and traditional keyed bottom plate. We hand file the
flatwork, assemble, and lacquer the bobbin just as it was done during
Fenders Golden Age. Its potted in our wax formulation for squeal free
performance.
