Full Description
The Classic Blues is the highest output of our "vintage" style Strat sets. Wound with a high wind on full strength Alnico V magnets, this set delivers punch and presence, and plenty of attack.
The Classic Blues set uses rod magnets with our "Modified Vintage Stagger" allowing for great string to string balance on a wide range of instruments.
Each pickup is fully wax potted to reduce any microphonic feedback, and comes supplied with screws, latex height adjustment tubing and an installation guide.
Neck 6.3k / Mid 6.4k / Bridge 7.0k

Customer Reviews
Replacing Fender noiseless on my strat because the neck pickup stopped working after a couple of years ( not good Fender!)
Good tone and fairly noise free
Easy fit with some soldering
Am primit dozele pentru chitară foarte repede. Au fost ambalate bine, calitate foarte bună. Setul Calssic Blues sună superb pe fenderul meu mexican. Recomand cu inima deschisă tuturor doritorilor de a face upgrade. Alexandru Baciu, Chișinău, Moldova.
Fantastic pickups. Great tone and clarity. I've had custom shop texas specials, tonerider city limits, both great pickups but tonerider classic blues have the edge.
Upgraded the stock pups in a 40th Anniversary Squire Strat. The result is a very lively, dynamic and colourful sound. A massive improvement on the lifeless originals. Exactly what I needed to give the bridge pickup some fire and the neck and middle pickups have bags more character. Ideally I'd prefer a little less low end from the neck pup but that's just personal preference. Very nicely made, attention to detail is great and love the new (plastic free) Apple-esque packaging.
Great sounding pickups
