Great vintage Strat tone. Clear, warm, and very responsive. Huge improvement over the stock pickups. Definitely worth the money!

For the price they are stellar! I'm getting great sounds out of my strat thru my Mesa Boogie Triple Crown!Pleased.

These pickups were a really good value for the money and of very good quality. The only complaint I have is the plastic covers were not quite deep enough so the pole pieces sat down in the hole a small amount and not flush with the top of the pickup. I know they are off because I checked the depth with a pair of calipers. The pickups themselves are alnico 5 magnets and waxed with proper cloth push back wires. I would recommend these for a budget stratocaster build or upgrade. One more thing to add is I installed these in a HSS strat so I didn’t use the bridge pickup. I am curious to see how the bridge sounds so I will update my review if I install the bridge in another project

Magnetic pole pieces are the way to go, staggered is even better

Very disappointed, wasted my time installing them
