The '54s are a faithful reproduction, constructed with the most authentic and period correct materials available. Black vulcanized fiber bobbins with staggered alnico 3 pole pieces, and scatter wound coils with heavy formvar magnet wire. These are bright with a punchy attack but have a lower output because of the alnico 3, and they work beautifully with tweed amplifiers. Perfect for a vintage style Strat build or anybody who wants that classic tone from 1954. The middle pickup is reversed for hum canceling when used with a 5-way switch.

I'm Chris and I love guitars. I got my first guitar 25 years ago when I was 13 and I've been hooked ever since. As a youngster I began tinkering with them right away, and even got in trouble for completely disassembling my Uncle's Strat!
After working many different jobs over the years ranging from guitar teacher to electronics manufacturing one thing has remained the same - I have not lost my passion for amazing guitar tone, and I never will!
