Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, Fender consulted original '59 Strat specs and used period-correct materials and winding techniques to achieve a very accurate recreation.
While they'll function, the brighter, more nuanced vintage tone might be slightly tamed by modern components; consider matching vintage-style pots and caps for optimal results.
It's on the lower side for modern rock, but the Alnico 5 magnets provide plenty of bite and sustain; it's more about the character than sheer output.
