FenderPure Vintage '59 Prewired Strat Pickguard Aged White
1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built around three Pure Vintage '59 single-coil pickups, this prewired Stratocaster pickguard is a focused route to early-Strat-style warmth and rounded response. Alnico V magnets, Formvar-coated wire, fiber bobbins, and cloth wiring carry through the vintage-oriented design. The reverse-wound middle pickup provides hum cancellation in switch positions two and four, while retaining the sharper, quacky character described for those settings. Installation involves replacing the existing guard and connecting the output-jack and ground wires.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Updating a Stratocaster with a prewired single-coil pickup assembly and vintage-style tonal direction.
