Review: Love These Pickups!! - Purchased this set of pickups to replace the original ones fitted to my 2007 Left-Handed American Standard Stratocaster. The originals were okay but I wanted something a bit different. What a difference these pickups make to the sound of the instrument, the improvement is huge in my opinion. I just absolutely love the sounds that I am now able to get - from classic 50s and 60s cleans to the overdriven sounds that are synonymous with the “Hendrix” era. Cannot fault the pickups or the seller. Super fast delivery as usual.
Review: Great tone - Brilliant pick ups. Very happy with my purchase. To my ear this gives a great ‘Blackie’ Clapton tone which is what I was after. Only downside is a lack of reverse wound middle pickup- but I have pick guard shield and shielded the cavity with copper tape so there is minimal hum in my set up anyway.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why are they called 57/62 pickups if they are reverse engineered from a 63 strat?**
A: These were developed probably 30 years ago and at the time we had two Vintage Reissue Strats, the '57 and the '62. These pickups were used in both so that was the name given to them and we have never changed it.

**Q: Se envian a España en ese precio**
A: Read the shipping limitations

**Q: I ordered two sets. Great pups, but come with wrong large screws, for pickguards, not for mounting ?**
A: The larger bolts should be for mounting the pickups.

**Q: does the position of each pickup (neck/bridge) matter?**
A: I don't know, I've never tried the pickups in opposite positions. I would think that the wiring would be more the concern.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great tone

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ BEWARE OF FAKES
*by M***K on 27 October 2022*

For quite a while I had been procrastinating over the purchase of Fender custom shop Fat 50's and I finally decided to decided to purchase them from Amazon as they had the best price. I was all excited when my parcel arrived and eagerly opend it up to examine my purchase. To say I was gutted when I set eyes on them is an understatement. I had researched these pickups for some time , I had looked at many pictures of them but when I saw what I had been sent I was devestated for what was inside the Fender packaging was clearly NOT Fat 50s. The ones I received had thin pvc covered wires in various colours including blue ! They were not the chunky traditional waxy cloth covered white and black of the bridge and neck pickups and the yellow and black of the middle ,also the build and construction was clearly inferior and no fender custom shop stickers underneath.. I contacted Amazon immediately with my concerns and for a short while I was extermely anxious about the situation but credit to them they arranged another shipment for me and I was able to send back the fakes. For good measure I made an package opening video just in case the same were to happen but thankfully the second set were legit. You don't normally expect this type of issue with items sold directly by Amazon but clearly they have an issue autheticating their stock. Somehow, fake/substitute items have been creeping into their stock. Now the good news I finally recieved the correct items and the difference in construction can clearly be seen so if you buy these know what you should be getting. As for the Fat 50s ....all the hype is justified for if you long for that quintessential sound that the Strat is famous for then these deliver in spades, their clarity and sweetness in my opinion just make them sound 'right'. Yes nowadays you can get all manner of pickup types including ceramic but to me they are not what I believe a strat should sound like you may as well get a different guitar. IMHO Fat 50s are wonderful.
