Just what I was looking for
Replaced pickups in my player series strat because they sounded to harsh to me. These pickups gave me the vintage strat tones that I was looking for.
Squire upgrade
These pickups are a very good improvement for the Squire Stratocaster with out spending too much. Overall tone seems more even and maybe a little more mellow.
Beautiful sounding pickups
I recently renovated my old Stratocaster that I bought at Rudy's Guitar Shop in New York in the early 80s. After a lot of research, I went with the 57/62 set. I didn't want to pay a lot! I've been playing for a long time and I've owned Fender Stratocasters dated back to 1963, so I know what those guitars sound like. As soon as I started playing with these new pickups I absolutely… read more loved the sound. I just recorded a new song and I got some great strat tones! If you're looking for the Hendrix clean rhythm sound, look no further...
Great upgrade
Dropped these in my CV Strat and - what an upgrade! Super clear "chimey" strat tones with increased output. Very cost effective upgrade - considering for my MIM as well. As always, great Sweetwater buying experience!
Classic strat tone
So let me start with I have a Mexican strat that has been heavily modified. The neck and body is all that's original. A couple of years ago I installed a pre wired pickguard withers Texas specials and CTS pots and Gilmore 7 way switch mod. Nice right? The only thing I wasn't very happy with was the Texas specials. Go figure. I raised and lowered those pups to every height you… read more can imagine, but couldn't get the right tone my ear was listening for. After many reviews and sound bites, I decided on these 57/62's. After an hour install and new strings what I found is that I should have installed these a long time ago. I'm talking some of the sweetest strat tones you could imagine. From Clapton to SRV and in between. These are the sweetest sounding pickups I've ever heard. I thought there might be an issue with the middle pup not being out of phase, so there's no hum canceling but I have not heard any more noise than the usual bad house ground. If your looking to upgrade to a vintage classic Fender tone these are the pups you want. Thanks Pat Weaver for always being the best sales engineer I've ever dealt with.
