Customize your tone with the Pre-Wired Stratocaster pickguards. Made with premium components in the same factory as our iconic guitars, this drop-in pickguard is easy to install. Simply remove your old guard, solder the output jack and ground wires, screw in the new guard and you're ready to rock with pure Fender sound. Vintage style noiseless pickups. Polysol-coated magnet wire with staggered hand-beveled pole pieces for smooth balanced tone. Alnico 2 magnets create complex harmonics with warmer attack and less aggressive midrange. Vintage style single-coil stratone without the hum. Vinyl-coated output wire and plastic bobbin.
