Product Overview
This kit includes 3 complete 1959 vintage style Stratocaster® pickup bobbins including all hardware and covers. All bobbins are pre-assembled and ready for winding. (Magnet wire is NOT included in this kit, and must be purchased separately)
These bobbins are similar to the 1954 kit except the Alnico 3 magnets from the early 50's era are now replaced with Alnico 5 for 1959. Comes with vintage style staggered polepieces.
