Detail 01
Reverse-wound, reverse-polarity middle pickup
Cancels hum in pickup-selector positions two and four.

Independent shopping perspective
Built around three Pure Vintage '59 single-coil pickups, this prewired Stratocaster pickguard is a focused route to early-Strat-style warmth and rounded response. Alnico V magnets, Formvar-coated wire, fiber bobbins, and cloth wiring carry through the vintage-oriented design. The reverse-wound middle pickup provides hum cancellation in switch positions two and four, while retaining the sharper, quacky character described for those settings. Installation involves replacing the existing guard and connecting the output-jack and ground wires.
