Hi I am new to the forum and I wonder if someone can help me.

I bought a set of pickups on Ebay that were advertised as US Fender Stratocaster and I even conformed with him that they were US made, not Mexican, etc. The pics were slightly off angle, so it was difficult to see the pots and switch. Can someone help me ID this set? The pots are 500k alphas. The switch is square. I'm thinking they are squires.

Welcome.

They appear to be typical Asian OEM electronics. In other words, they are positively NOT from a US Fender Stratocaster and akin to the electronics of a Squier.

Thanks for the quick reply. Guess I have learned another life lesson. Time to get Paypal involved I think.

Cheers.
