Hot wound inespensive ALNICO's are pretty common so I was pretty excited to see these supposedly vintage wound pickups. No luck there. These things are 8.6 to 9k. I already have a set like these so these are useless to me.

Don't expect boutique sound, but they are pretty darn good for what they are and the price is good on these too. I installed them and they sound very good - not great - but very good. Keep in mond I am commparing these to some of the best Strat pickups I have heard in USA strats and custom shop too..... worth the money.

decent value, I haven't tried them out yet, but I saw them on a YT video and liked the sound :)

Excelente inversin para actualizar cualquier guitarra que trae pastillas de cermica de fbrica, alnico 5 totalmente y con muy buen sonido, calida precio demasiado bueno.

They say if you don't like something change it. I temporarily swapped Fender Squire Ceramic pickups for these, Wow! These just sparkle.we went fom dull and virtually intolerable to something you just want to pickup and play...permanent swap TechnicalI have stock squire mini 500k pots, .033mFd orange cap, fender locking tuners, mim tremolo, bone nutBridge 9.2 middle 8.47 neck 8.96I was going to heat the wax and unwind the coil if I thought it was necessary to balance the coils. It's not necessary they sound great. I may buy another set and see if makes a perceptible difference. Clear plastic bobbins. 48/50/52 Brilliant progressive pole spacing that centers alnico magnet poles with the strings. No covers included. Standard Stock covers, that are all the same size, will not fit. 48/50/52 covers are available in a set and recommended otherwise your coils will bounce around and that's Bad.Hands down one of the best upgrades for my strat for the price. Anyone crying about short leads needs to get a good soldering iron and a lesson on how to use it.Happy
