Can anyone tell me what pups came on the '12 Fender Select Strat? I'm looking for parts for a partscaster and there is a loaded pickguard with these pups in it, but I'm not sure what they are.

I think those were only identified as special pickups for that model. I had the Tele, not the Strat so maybe a Strat owner can tell you what they are close to.

Hello. I have a 2012 Fender Select (Dark Cherry Burst).

The pickups are special 'Fender Select' single coil pickups, and it's important to note that the Tone control for the Bridge and middle has a no-load tone feature when it is on 10 (you'll feel a slight click).

I find them to be the quintessential Strat sound and in many ways the best sounding single-coil pickups I've ever played. The neck pickup has loads of dimension, and the bridge pickup can get those bell-like tones with the proper settings (no-load engaged, volume at 10, right set of strings). Amazing set of pickups.

I agree with what they said, I have 2012 dark cherry burst also.... I get really excited every time I pick it up!
