Our most heralded set! Wound to provide a balance of highs and mid range to give a real big Strat® sound. While the sound may be big and fat, the tone is clear and warm allowing players to really push their amps.

The ’59 Overwound provide similar characteristics to the 1956-1957 set but with a seasoned touch of mid range giving it a hotter and bigger sound, much like our favorite from Austin!

The set, like our others, comes calibrated to offer a balance across your Strat®. The middle is reverse wound/reverse polarity to offer hum canceling in the notch positions 2 and 4 as well as that sweet “quack” tone.

1959 Overwound Hot Pickup for Strat®

Put in neck position of one of my Fender Strats. Stock pickup was blah. This one really livens it up. Tone is bright with lots of depth. Overtones are nice. With my old Marshall it sounds very SRV. It says it's an overwound pickup, but mine retains a nice clarity like a lower impedance pickup. I'm keeping this one in my axe for awhile. Bought a 2nd one for another one of my guitars that needs some sonic character in the neck position. And yes, there's a boatload of other good pickup brands out there, but Planet Tone isn't gouging you for great tone. Have to admit, I like these guys.

Excellent upgrade!!

I selected the 1959 overwound hot pickups to ugrade my 24 year old Squire strat. Love them! Great clean, chimey tones, and also lots of punch when desired. My Squire finally sound like a strat should, going from a closet guitar to one I really enjoy playing.
