assemblies in our shop by hand for every customer based on the unique
specifications selected below.
Includes everything ready to
drop in to your favorite Strat® by simply
hooking up the hot wire (audio) and ground
wires. Includes Fender's new Deluxe Drive
Stratocaster® Pickup Set, genuine Fender®
pickguard, knobs, switch tip along with top
quality CTS potentiometers, Orange Drop

pickguards are fully aluminum foil shielded as they come from
Fender,

The
'56/'59, '57, '62 and '65 vintage pickguards
require a separate aluminum pickguard shield
which is to be added extra if so desired. Use
separate "Add to Cart" buttons found below for
addition of these pickguard shields.
We offer a few assembly selection
options for your pickguard to appeal to your

Stratocaster® pickups are supercharged with
the highest output of all our single-coil

them ideal for high-gain amp settings, but
they also sparkle brilliantly when clean.
The middle pickup is
reverse-wound/reverse-polarity to cancel hum
in positions two and four.
Polysol-coated magnet wire.
Staggered pole pieces deliver
smooth, balanced tone across every
string.
Alnico 3 magnets add more focus and
enhanced dynamics.

Important Note: If you are
selecting your pickguard assembly to be built
with one of the '56/'59, '57, '62 or '65 vintage pickguards they are unshielded as
provided by Fender. To have the genuine Fender®
full coverage aluminum pickguard shielding plate or '57 control
area aluminum shielding plate installed please add it separately
below using the appropriate "Add to Cart"
button.
These separate aluminum shielding plates are specific and authentic to
how Fender was shielding their pickguard
assemblies during the '50s and early to mid
60's. The '57 pickguard typically will
have the control area aluminum shielding plate
installed, the '62 and '65 pickguard typically
will have the full coverage aluminum shielding
plate installed.
