Fender CuNiFe Stratocaster Pickup Set Overview
The first truly innovative voice in single-coil Stratocaster pickups in a generation, CuNiFe Stratocaster pickups offer brilliant tone both familiar and new at the same time. Their vintage-style voice offers more of everything—deep piano-like lows, present and pleasing midrange, and sweet and sparkling highs that will invigorate your guitar playing with new life and bold dynamics.
CuNiFe, historically only used in our wide-range humbuckers that use the same threaded magnets, these pickups embody hi-fi clarity while never losing attack and definition no matter how hard they’re pushed. The distinctive-looking chrome-ringed cover acts as a shield to help eliminate 60-cycle hum, making these pickups a remarkably true and quiet single-coil option. Sought after by musicians of all genres for decades, the original-era real CuNiFe magnet pickups disappeared when the Telecaster Custom was discontinued in 1979.
