Handwound Stratocaster '59 Vintage Alnico V Pickup Set
Handwound Stratocaster '59 Vintage Alnico V Pickup Set
Migas Touch is a custom shop pickup maker. We specialize in Fender Stratocaster and Telecaster pickups. Our Vintage '59 pickups follow the formula of the golden era of Fender. 1957 to 1962 is considered the best era for Fender Strats. Our 59's replicate that sweet spot of vintage Stratocaster sound. Warm lows with a bit of punch. SRV, Clapton, and many other greats got their sound from this style of pickup.
We lacquer seal all of our bobbins for durability then fully wax pot them to avoid microphonic noises and squeals. All of our pickups are hand-wound and scatterwound. The neck and bridge are north up polarity while the middle is south up polarity and reverse wound to reduce the noise when in the 2 and 4 between pickup positions. We have spent a great amount of time testing wires, magnets, and bobbins from various sources to product the best quality pickup that we can. Each of our hand-wound sets are signed, numbered, and dated. 100% made in the USA..
