An Authentic Reinterpretation of the Early '60s Strat Sound
Designed from the models of a 1963 Stratocaster, the Fender Pure Vintage "57/62 Strat" aim to deliver a sound very close to the historic pickups: a sparkling but never harsh top end, singing mids, and a rounded low end. The result is ideal for capturing the vintage Strat tonal signature, whether in crystal-clear clean tones or edgy crunch.
Who and What Styles?
This set of three pickups is intended for Stratocaster players seeking an organic and highly expressive response: blues, surf, funk, pop, classic rock, or any style where attack precision and transparency in the intermediate positions matter. They respond strongly to the volume pot, pick dynamics, and touch variations, ensuring a lively performance.
Manufacturing Choices That Make the Difference
From the fiber coil material to the cloth-covered wiring, everything is geared towards authenticity and an "old school" feel. The Alnico 5 magnets provide articulation and presence, while the hand-slanted staggered pole pieces contribute to string balance and vintage character. With consistent DC resistance across neck, middle, and bridge, and inductance aligned with traditional model spirit, this set delivers a Fender Pure Vintage sound, rich in harmonics and naturally musical.

Good microphones, I mounted them on my Mexican Strat, that's different from a guitar, they are quite precise and clear without being loud. The sound possibilities are greater, you can use the “tone” and “volume” buttons, they are much more precise.
The neck pickup is great!Automatically translated

Finally, my strat (standard) sounds dreamy, like a big one.
