Customize your tone with Fender Pre-Wired Stratocaster pickguards. Made with premium components in the same factory as the iconic guitars, this drop-in pickguard is easy to install. Simply remove your old guard, solder the output jack and ground wires, screw in the new guard and you’re ready to rock with pure Fender sound.
No other pickups give you the powerful, clean and clear surf rock tones of mid-’60s Stratocaster guitars like dutifully constructed, meaty-sounding Pure Vintage ‘65 Strat pickups. From vintage bobbin construction to genuine original-era cloth wiring, all Fender Pure Vintage pickups are wound to precise specifications for authentic, traditional Fender tone and performance. The addition of a reverse wound reverse polarity middle pickup eliminates 60-cycle hum in positions 2 and 4 and adds the classic Stratocaster quack to those positions.
Features:
- Formvar-coated magnet wire improves overall brightness
- Alnico 5 magnets add more focus and enhanced dynamics
