Vintage ’60s Mustang Pickup Set – Handwound Alnico V

A faithful nod to the golden era of offset tone.

This pickup set is a carefully refined take on the classic 1960s Mustang sound — retaining the clarity, chime and punch players love, while adding a slightly overwound bridge for extra bite and authority when you need it.

Each pickup is handwound using vintage-correct 42 AWG Plain Enamel wire, delivering the articulate top end and dynamic response that defined the original Mustang guitars of the 60s. The bridge pickup features a modest overwind to push the mids and output just enough to balance beautifully with the neck, giving you more presence without losing that unmistakable vintage character.

We’ve paired the coils with non-staggered, custom vintage-cloned Alnico V magnets, carefully selected to reproduce the focused attack and tight low end associated with the originals.

Whether you’re chasing glassy cleans, jangly indie tones, or pushing your amp into gritty garage rock territory, this set delivers authentic offset tone with a subtle modern advantage.
