A rare "pre-CBS" sound, captured by the Custom Shop
In early 1964, Fender adopted a gray baseplate on its Stratocaster pickups, a sought-after evolution for its snappier, more present, and punchier sound. On vintage instruments, finding this configuration has become a true treasure hunt for collectors.
Who is this Greenburst 64 set for?
This set is aimed at guitarists who want to transform their Strat into a nuanced machine: bright cleans, clear attacks, rich overdrives, and singing sustain. If you love blues phrasing and expressive playing like Joe Bonamassa, you will find this immediate response that "pushes" the amp while maintaining string-by-string definition.
Design: period-accurate wiring, Alnico V, and position balance
Designed using the exact wiring corresponding to the period, this set combines Alnico V magnets with staggered pole pieces and a Custom Shop approach focused on authenticity. The result: precise highs without harshness, lively mids, and solid lows, perfect for playing at guitar volume. The aged white covers complete the vintage look, while the waxed cotton wire respects the spirit of classic assemblies.
