Quote:
From crisp signature sparkle at the bridge to warmth and fullness at the neck, the 60th Anniversary Telecaster® gets its rich depth, definition and dynamics from dual American Vintage Telecaster single-coil pickups.


(There were, of course, other Anniversary-related models, too. For instance, a White Blonde MIM FSR series has Vintage Noiseless pickups.)

Thank you for the answer.
The catalogue does not really tell what kind of pickups they are.
They read 10,4 kOhm and 8,67 kOhm. And the bridge seem to be pretty hot.
I´m thinking about swapping them. Here is my question:
It´s a lefthanded, as i´m leftie. If i swap them with the usual pickups available- which are righthanded, do i get in trouble in terms of screws, turning around, wiring?
I would go for flatpole/even polepieces to avoid wrong emphasizing.
Thank you, everybody
Kai

Screws and turning around: I wouldn't expect major problems, wiring: the same, as long as you have enough of it. :wink:
But I'm not a leftie, so here's more on the subject:
Leftie pickups Fender Forum
Leftie pickups Lollar

Those kOhm's you measured are hot, about the Twisted Tele pup range and certainly above 58&64 Pure Vintage pups. So if you want to know exactly what you have, email consumerrelations@fender.com and ask them.
Sometimes you can tame a hot pickup by lowering it below the recommended measure, might be worth testing.

The guitardater is very limited - but on Fender Support > Product Dating > Mexican Instruments it says "MX11 + 6 digits = 2011-2012" - just as it should...
