I have Van Zandt Vintage Plus replacement pickups in my Fender Stratocaster, and they are the best pickups I have ever heard. Absolute clarity, range, and warmth. Kick in the overdrive pedal and they get angry. Pure rock and blues tone without those harsh ear-piercing highs that so often come with Strat pickups in the bridge position. A lot of care goes into these hand-wound earthy pickups.
