Custom boutique hand/scatterwound Vintage Stratocaster pickups in a loaded 7 way pickguard or A blend knob on tone knob 2 is an option instead of the push pull Volume knob. TRUE Left Handed version available but in 5-way only. All middle pickups are RWRP and Magnets are Staggered & beveled. I build 8 different vintage version of Stratocaster models. See my other adds. #1 Pre CBS 57-62 Model 5060VF, I use a 59 Neck, 62 RWRP Middle and 61 Bridge. Vintage 42 Heavy gauge Formvar wire. #2 Early CBS 64-1970, Grey Bottom pickups and changed to 42 gauge plain enamel wire. 1 CHOICE OF Pre CBS 57-62 black bobbin Vintage spec Alnico V. 187 diameter magnets using 42 gauge Vintage Formvar Remington Wire. 2 OR EARLY CBS 64-70 Grey bottom Nicknamed ” The Jimi Years ” using Vintage spec Alnico V. 187 diameter magnets using 42 gauge Vintage Plain Enamel Remington wire. These pickups are completely built by me in my USA, Ohio shop using USA suppliers at mie music. Also a local recording studio. I specialize only in Vintage Stratocaster pickups and for years now my Hand Wound Vintage tone pickups, magnifies the harmonics, the incidentals, the upper octaves, the fifths and the relationship of the pick to index finger strikes while maintaining strong sustained fundamental tone and real clarity. Most of my favorite Vintage Fender pickups have a little bulge in the middle and not the flat sides you see in CNC machined pickups. I added the bulge to replicate my Vintage pickups. Here are my steps. 2 I dip the unwound completed Flatwork with magnets installed in Lacquer. Dry for 24 hours. 3 Then I hand/scatter to the coil to my proprietary way of winding with 42 gauge USA Remington wire of your choice, Vintage Formvar or Plain enamel. 5 Wax dip with 80% paraffin 20% beeswax at 140-150 degrees for perfect response and clarity. 6 Charge the Magnets. 7 Install on the Pickguard. I use CTS / Fender pots. The Volume knob is a push / pull knob. When in position 5 and the knob pulled it adds the bridge. In position 4 when pulled it adds all 3 pickups in parallel. When not pulled it performs like a Standard 5 way Strat. 8 My stock pickguard colors are White, Black, Mint green, Red tortoise and Vintage Brown tortoise. But be sure to ask about other colors. I have been playing Strats for over 50 years and had a bucket full of dead pickups so I started taking them apart to find the weakness. I found that the wiring had rubbed against the coil magnets until they shorted out, so that’s why I lacquer the flatwork before winding. These pickups are made to last and give you a great Vintage tone and low cost upgrade to your instrument.
