single coil pickup "Vintage Tweed Neck", flat poles, parchment
1954 marks the origin of the now-iconic Stratocaster®, and our Tweed pickups faithfully recreate the sound that those early Strats® produced. These super clean pickups offer even volume and frequency response and won’t get muddy under heavy distortion.

Avg. DC: Neck 4.9K, middle 5.3K, and bridge 5.7K

As their names suggest, flat-pole pickups have all of the individual pole pieces set at the same height, whereas with staggered-pole pickups the pole pieces are set at different heights. Staggered-pole pickups were originally created to compensate for heavier string gauges—particulary wound 3rd strings.

If you’re unsure which to choose, we typically recommend flat poles rather than staggered. In most cases, flat-pole pickups will give you better string balance, as well as a little more presence, bass and output.
