These Antiquity II Surf ST pickups nail that classic Fender vibe, but with a welcome dose of extra punch from the bridge. The reversed-wound middle pickup is a real boon for noise-free cleans, and the aged finish looks and feels fantastic. Ideal for players seeking authentic vintage tones with a bit more bite – think blues, classic rock, and anything needing that slightly hotter bridge pickup.
