great sound
By Ted Barrett
Good sound - the middle is NOT reverse wound/reverse polarity so when selecting position 2 or 4 there is no hum canceling. There is also none of the drop in volume found in modern strats.To eliminate the noise I expected I completely shielded the cavity and pickguard with copper foil. The grounds were strengthened and moved to a single point (no solder to pots)There is no noise at all until the vol pot is opened up above 8 - then it is just kind of warm - no microphonic squeals at all - don't see a need to wax the pickups.Great vintage tone - clear bell/piano like tones - using a 30watt tube - this is the sound I was after

Great purchase
By Leonhard
I bought this for my Ibañez Rx guitar, a 13 yr old guitar made in Korea. I changed all the pot's and wiring (i added one extra tone),she is totally different now. This pick ups provides clear and bright tones. Excellent for this price, and if you have a basic idea of wiring, easy to install.

By StratLover
I have a MIM Strat that had stock pickups in it and the tone was good....but lacked that certain something. I wanted to change the pups and so I did a LOT of research on different brands and styles of single coils, and saw these on Youtube and was BLOWN AWAY! I bought a set from Amazon and got them installed and to my surprise they sounded even better in person.I could definitely hear the difference between these and the stock pickups. I love that vintage tone that these pups give you. If you're looking to upgrade your sound, try these out. You Won't be disappointed! You don't have to pay big bucks on an American Strat, and by the way, (and I'm not an Amazon employee. LOL!) Amazon has the cheapest prices on these that I've seen. Go get yours NOW!!! :o)
