Kennedy 1962

Kennedy 1962

from $95.00

Kennedy 1962 Stratocaster pickups are an excellent upgrade for all Strat pickups. these pickups have a warm and bluesy tone with clear, sparkling highs and beautiful, round lows.  Aggressive scooped mids for a “Texas Blues” sound.  A few more turns than the “Nixon” set gives these a bit more volume.  Hand-weakened and beveled magnets are warm and sweet, like a naturally aged pickup.  Scatterwound with vintage correct Formvar wire with 7,900 turns.  Vulcanized flatwork and cloth covered leads complete the package.  Bridge pickup comes with a metal baseplate for more output. Wax potted for fewer microphonics.  RW/RP middle pickup for hum-canceling in 2 and 4.

All of my pickups are made to your custom specs.  Please allow two weeks after ordering for your pickups to be delivered.

A quick demo of the early '60s Kennedy Strat pickups in a Fender American Strat. You will hear a Strymon Flint for reverb, Fulltone OCD for overdrive and a Russian Big Muff Pi Fuzz/distortion at the end. Played through a Bassman amp (black faceplate) and mic'd with a Shure SM57.
