Hello, can someone tell something about those pickups?

Image

Title on the 2 single pickups say "SCN" - nothing else.

Pickups near bridge are clear, without any "name"

Sorry for my english!

Greetings!

edit: maybe it's 2x SCN Noiseless + fender enforcer humbucker?

Your pic doesn't show, so all I can say is that "SCN" stands for 'single coil noiseless'.
There are several 60s Strats, maybe you could be a little more precise with the model series.
Are the pickups original?

Actually, SCN is an abbreviation for "Samarian Cobalt Nickel". These pickups are of noiseless design and were introduced in the early 2000's. They're a double-stacked dual-coil configuration.

SCN pickups were used in American Deluxes from 2004-2009 (i.e. "version 2" of the American Deluxe). From what I remember they were designed by Bill Lawrence (of Bill & Becky Lawrence/Wilde Instruments, not the "Bill Lawrence" company that wound up owning the rights to Bill's name). Eventually SCNs were also used on the Hot Rod '57 Strat in the neck and middle positions alongside a DiMarzio rail-type pickup. That model was made from 2007-2012 or 2013.
