They're featured on the new 2014 Custom Deluxe Strat.

These pickups are supposed to emulate an overwound 60's Strat pickup.

Hope the new pickups will be available as a separate product in the online store!

What are you questioning? That the new pups are overwound or that some old '60s pups were a bit overwound?
