Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, it's designed as a direct replacement, assuming your guitar uses a standard ST-style pickguard and wiring layout. However, minor adjustments might be needed depending on the guitar's age and condition.
The Area set offers a more authentic vintage tone with a richer harmonic complexity compared to the cleaner, more sterile sound of the Vintage Noiseless. Expect more character and a slightly lower output than the Fender set.
While technically possible, the pre-wired nature is best utilized as a complete set. Replacing individual pickups might require re-wiring, defeating the purpose of the pre-wired convenience.
