Our Vintage voiced Stratocaster single coils are built to bring you that Late 50's and 60's sound. Hand wound with Heavy Formvar wire using Alnico 5 magnets to delivery that airy and spanky Stratocaster tone loved by many. The magnets have the early 60"s stagger. The output is calibrated providing perfect volume and tonal balance between all three. These are a definite favourite of mine and our top selling model.

Features:

42awg Heavy Formvar

Neck output: 6.2k

Middle output: 6.2k

Bridge output: 6.5k

RWRP middle pickup for hum cancelling

Wax potted for squeal free operation

Choose the No Cover option if you want to use your own covers. This is common as many players strat covers are aged with the instrument keeping the look the same.

These VS-61s are awesome!

Just installed these VS-61s (set of 3) in my vintage Strat. These pickups are absolutely outstanding! Installation was very easy (dropped right in) and they are way quieter (less hum) and sound much better than my previous pickups. Very high quality. For classic rock/blues etc., these pickups nail the tone and feel! I can see why these are so popular! Thanks again to Kris for all his help determining the best pickups for my needs and the great build quality. Pegcity is my new go to for pickups! Highly recommend!

The Right Choice

I chose a complete set of VS-61s with the flat pole piece profile to replace the stock V-Mod IIs in my AmPro ii Strat. The stock pups weren’t voiced to my liking for this guitar, and their vintage stagger was throwing the string balance off. I guess Fender is constantly trying to reinvent the wheel but I just want my Strat to be a Strat. The VS-61 Pegcity set has just the voice and balance I was looking for. The set is well made, well packaged, and from Winnipeg! Get some!

Massive upgrade

Got a neck and bridge to mod out my Squier CV strat and as expected these are massive upgrades from stock. Way more dimension in the notes and clarity in my chords. Saw some other comments about lower output but has not been the case on my end. The neck and bridge pickups are just as loud as my bridge humbucker.

Wow

Just installed vs-61 pickups in a new American pro2 Strat. Just got back from a rehearsal and I’m truly blown away by these pick ups. very quiet for single coils. They make the guitar come alive and I hate to compare, but they do everything better than the original pick ups. Beautiful round bell like tone for aclean sounds, and a nice smooth compressed sound for leads that has a nice bite but is never brittle. Good quick service and and just fabulous sounding pickups. I’m sold! Tone for days!
