Hello and thank you in advance for the help here. I acquired this pickup recently and the previous owner stated it is a mid 60's Fender pickup. I have posted this on a few other forums that I belong to without any positive ID yet as to wether or not this is actually Fender and if so, what vintage. The magnets have beveled tops and appear to be staggered, bobbins are black and of heavy material, cloth covered wires, looks like burgundy colored winding wire (enamel?). I attached a number of clear pictures to show the details. Can you help me identify it? Thank you! Frank

Spoke to the person that owned the '65 p-bass that this pickup came out of. He has some noteriety in Nashville and tells me it came out of a Fender '65 P-bass he owned. Yes, his bass could have been altered before he got it but he doesn't think so and I'm good going with it being a Fender '65 pickup. Thanks for the input...

The black bottom would be right for that era. These are extremely valuable pickups and scarce these days. The real deal.
