I bought this brand new 2004 American Standard neck pickup on eBay. I didn't realize until I got it how dramatically the pole heights varied. Although I didn't notice it when bid on it, if you look in the photo, you can see what I mean. The lowest doesn't protrude through the pickup cover at all (is flush) and the tallest does reach above the cover quite a bit. And the profile that they make wouldn't mirror the neck/string radius at all. I have a 1993 American Standard and poles on those pickups are pretty much level for all strings. This is what I was expecting.

Is this normal for an American Strat neck pickup? I haven't installed it yet and don't want to if I need to try to return it

I have a 2002 American Series Strat I bought and my pickups are all staggered in the same way you describe.
