The Pre-CBS Vintage (black bobbin) pickups have those Vintage Fender tones which gives you Shimmering highs, Classic bell tones with Vintage quack, and warm fat lows. These pickups are Hand Wound by me one at a time, in my USA shop. I use the top USA suppliers, using the highest quality parts while still making a low-cost affordable Vintage tone upgrade for your beloved instrument. I specialize only in Vintage Stratocaster Pickups and for years now my Hand Wound Vintage tone pickups, magnifies the harmonics, the incidentals, the upper octaves, the fifths and the relationship of the pick to index finger strikes while maintaining strong sustained fundamental tone and real clarity. Most of my Favorite Vintage Fender pickups have a little bulge in the middle and not the flat sides you see in CNC machined pickups. I add the bulge to replicate my vintage pickups. Specs: Averages Tested at 77 degrees and 42% humidity, +/- 5% on a DER EE LCR DE-5000 meter, this meter has a USB output that you can save on your PC in Microsoft. This gives me a record of every pickup I have made and sold. My Pre-CBS pickup sets test under 6k ohms and under 3.0 Henries, Built the true old school way. My Assembly Steps: watch on youtube Mie Music Jobe 1- I install the Alnico 5 Rod Magnets into the Flatwork, using a pickup jig on a hand Arbor press. 2- I dip the finished bobbin in Lacquer. This does 2 things; #1 it keeps the coil wire from shorting out directly onto the Rod Magnets. This is where 90% of Vintage Fender Pickups Fail. The Coil Wire rubbing against the magnets. #2 This glues the Flatware to the magnets, eliminating the use of super glue. Dry time varies. 24 hours average. 3- Pickup winding- I use a Mojo Tone Pickup Winder. Varying my patterns and wire tension and my proprietary way that I developed, coming from years of hand on research and beta testing. 4- I install Lead Vintage push back cloth wires directly to the pickups. 5- Perform the initial testing: K ohms, Henries, pf capacitance@1k and RP @ 1k 6- WAXING- I use 80% Paraffin and 20% Bees wax. Heated to 140-150 degrees for 10-15 minutes. Perfect for response and Clarity. 7- I wrap the coil with fabric tape for four reasons. # 1 it cuts down the chances of damaging the coil when changing pickup covers. #2 Helps stop high gain feedback. #3 Keeps out moisture, just an added protection and expense of building a long-lasting reliable pickup. #4 some guitarists while recording will sit in the control room with the amp in the ISO room, while others like to sit or stand by their amp. I started to notice that most Gibson guitars did not have that high squeal and after checking those guitars found they had fabric tape on the pickups. So, I put some fabric tape on a few of my Strat’s and was floored how well this worked. Back in the 50’s there was really no need for it because the amps were not as high powered as today’s. Leo was also known as a tight wad and maybe he didn’t want to add to the time and expense. 8- Perform second round of testing, confirming the correct specifications are met. 9- Charging Magnets: I use a Mojo tone N/S Vise charger. I FULLY charge all pickup rod magnets once sold. I test the Gauss on a Tesla meter making sure of a smooth even charge on each magnet. Then I put the lead wires through the Flatware hole. I retest the polarity of the pickups which are North for the Neck and Bridge and South for the RWRP middle pickup with a small handheld tester. I have been playing Strats for over 50 years and have a pretty good idea of how a Vintage Strat should sound, I am pretty sure many of you also know. Polls show 80% of the Strat players are happy with their tone. I am after that 20% of the very picky players. I would love to have orders from those 80% who may have never heard or played Hand Wound pickups to show them what they are missing and what a low-cost pickup upgrade can do for their guitar and the enjoyment these pickups can bring. Pre-CBS Black bottom bobbin average: Alnico 5 magnets 42 awg gauge Vintage Heavy Formvar wiring: Neck:5.70k 2.45h/ RWRP Middle 5.75k 2.40h/ Bridge 5.80k 2.42h.... So, they can spec in sets at 5.65k to 5.9k. My pickups are made to last and come from a result of listening to my vintage guitar collection and taking apart a bucket full of DEAD Fender pickups, studying them, painstakingly un-winding them, videotaping and taking very detailed notes. This is how I came up with my proprietary way of hand winding my pickups. After BETA testing on every kind of neck and body woods made. Plus tested on tube and solid-state amps, pedals, digital devices, and software in my recording studio Mie Music, that I opened in 1999, with fantastic results. I have built numerous part casters, and upgraded American and MIM Strat’s and installed my pickups, and they are highly comparable to my Vintage collection. I am receiving great 5 Star reviews and 100% great feedback from all the guitar players currently using my pickups on all 3 of my selling sites. Guitarists like that they can contact the owner/winder with any questions. “Enjoy peace of mind with your new gear. “ The work has been done, so install, and you will find complete nirvana for recording and playing live. Thanks for Looking. Jobe Jude Mie Music
