FretPrime Vintage 60s Single Coil Alnico V Pickup Set — Strat SSS

Product Overview

A 1960s-voiced Stratocaster pickup set wound slightly hotter than early-50s specs for a fatter, warmer tone with more pronounced midrange. Alnico V magnetic pole pieces with staggered pole pieces deliver sweet, extended note decay with just enough bite for classic rock and blues applications. This set captures the transition-era Strat voice that powered the British Invasion and beyond.

Craftsmanship & Materials

Alnico V staggered rod magnets for balanced output across all strings. Hand-guided coil winding using 42 AWG heavy formvar wire for the slightly darker, rounder 60s character. Wax-potted for feedback control at stage volumes. Includes chrome covers. RWRP middle pickup for hum-free operation in switch positions 2 and 4.

Compatibility & Installation

Standard Stratocaster single-coil dimensions. Set includes neck (6.0k), middle (6.1k RWRP), and bridge (6.5k) pickups. Fits all standard Strat pickguards with single-coil routing. Pre-tinned cloth-covered leads for traditional installation.
