The vintage style staggered
pole single coil Rw/Rp version of our Five-Two Strat pickup
uses a unique combination of alnico 2 and 5 rod
magnets for sweet highs and tight lows.
This vintage style single coil for Strat is
designed to give you all of the dual magnet
benefits that the standard wound Five-Two
delivers, but is reverse wound reverse
polarity so when combined with either the
bridge or neck pickup in positions 2 & 4, it
will be hum-canceling. Just like the
standard wound version, the alnico 2 rods
under the G, B, & E strings provide a
sweetened treble response while the alnico
5s under the low E, A, & D strings keep them
sounding clear and crisp. Combine with the
Five-Two neck pickup and Five-Two custom
bridge pickup for a complete setup. Like all
of our vintage Fender style single coil
pickups, we start with the right color and
thickness of Forbon flatwork. Along with the
period correct magnet stagger, this pickup
comes complete with waxed and tinned cloth
pushback hook-up wires and traditional keyed
bottom plate. We hand file the flatwork,
assemble, and lacquer the bobbin just as it
was done during Fenders Golden Age.
