A Tribute to 1957 Strat Tones, Revisited with More Density
Based on the Fender Pure Vintage approach, the Coastline '57 Stratocaster fits within the grand tradition of mid-1950s Strat pickups: an open, articulate sound, highly responsive to touch, with that characteristic brightness that cuts through the mix. The difference lies in the setup: a slightly more generous winding to bring more body and harmonic richness, ideal for subtly modernizing a guitar without betraying its DNA.For Guitarists Who Want the Strat "Chime"... with More Punch
These pickups are aimed at lovers of vintage sounds (blues, surf, funk, classic rock, pop) seeking dynamic response and clear string-to-string definition. The slight overwinding helps thicken clean tones and adds more presence in crunch, while maintaining the clarity and precision essential for rhythmic parts and singing leads. Perfect if you find some vintage pickups too "tame" and want more warmth and focus in everyday playing.Vintage Construction: Alnico 5, Traditional Coils, and Fabric Wiring
The Coastline '57 Stratocaster relies on Alnico 5 magnets to achieve a crisp attack, solid low-end sustain, and bright highs. The coil construction stays true to vintage aesthetics, complemented by original-era style fabric wiring, appreciated for its durability and ease of use during installation. The slightly oversized winding enhances tonal depth and harmonic richness, delivering a fuller, more impactful sound while preserving the Strat's signature bell-like chime and transparency.Technical specifications
