Good evening,

I bought a Fender stratocaster Japan Crafted from 97, and it comes with the pickups i show in the pictures-

is it possible to identify them?

Hard to tell from just those pics.
What color are the windings.
Pic of the poles and dc resistance may put you in the ball park :D

...Or just as well CS 54's... :mrgreen:

On those pics, I'd say some elimination is possible, but a reliable positive ID is not.

First pic seems to indicate bright copper windings.
If that is they case they are not texas specials which have a purplish type wire and generally red and blue dots on the pickups. :D

AFAIK, TexSpec's have yellow/black wires in the middle pickup, to point out it's RWRP. (Same applies to "American 50's Strat" pickups, which were one possibility in 1997).

So far, I'd still guess they're CS-54's, but the staggers/bevels (probably) give more info.

And, I'm not sure those are original for the guitar - so, which model is it?

Kinda confusing, the red mark on the bottom of the bridge pickup is on the A string magnet. I’ve never seen that before, it has always been on the B string magnet.

Also, the Fender Custom Shop stickers are backwards, they’ve always faced the neck on all of the pickups I’ve seen.

I’m gonna take a guess, and say they’re something like 57/62 Strat pickups made to look like custom shop.
