Planet Tone '59 Overwound Handcrafted Pickup Set for Strat®

Our most heralded set! Wound to provide a balance of highs and mid range to give a real big Strat® sound. While the sound may be big and fat, the tone is clear and warm allowing players to really push their amps.

The ’59 Overwound provide similar characteristics to the Classic ’50s but with a seasoned touch of mid range giving it a hotter and bigger sound, much like our favorite from Austin!

The set, like our others, comes calibrated to offer a balance across your Strat®. The middle is reverse wound/reserse polarity to offer hum canceling in the notch positions 2 and 4 as well as that sweet “quack” tone.

Features:

  • Neck @ 5.8k
  • Middle RW/RP @ 6.1k
  • Bridge @ 6.5k
  • Cloth Pull Back Leads
  • Alnico V Magnets
  • Heavy Formvar Magnet Wire
  • Choose: Pickup Cover (black, white, cream)
  • 100% Hand Crafted to order and Proudly Made in America - Denver, CO

      Planet Tone Pickup Reviews
*******************************

"Simply the best pickup I've ever played!" ~ Bernie Torme

"I've used several of their humbuckers....Just Love Them!!!" ~ Mark Williams

"Superb! Jose knows how to help and create the tone you need!" ~ Wladimir Eenkoorn

"Simply the best pickup I've ever used...Bar none!" ~ Johnny Compton

"All I can say is Hell yes! Well done guys this pups ability to stay articulate and full regardless of the amounts of gain hitting it are fantastic and it sounds great clean too though I'm mainly a metal player.... Amps I used with plenty of gain and dimed gain just for testing to much gain sounds like ass were Mesa Rectoverb V2 combo,Randall RM100 with 1086,KH3 modules for gain Blackface for cleans,& 6505MH for when I can't wake the house. Very good pickup if and when I can I'll do a video review of this pup thru all 3 amps clean/dirty/boosted but for the $ if you dig metal like I do give one a shot does not disappoint." ~ Ryan Henkel

"Planet Tone pickups are simply the best available. I wouldn’t use any other replacement pickup myself and I love my two guitars with them installed, they sound fantastic." ~ Rob Sas

"For me, nothing beats the quality of Planet Tone pickups. They give me all the clarity and crunch I need without masking the sound of the instrument. Just pure inspiring tone." ~ Scott Abene

"Planet Tone pickups are better sounding than anything else I have used in the past. I have always thought the Fralin's were the best.  I have a few sets but I only spent that extra money on special guitars. I actually think your DG and 59 Overwound sets beat the Fralin's.  The  Dimarzio, Duncan and Fender pickups aren't even close.  I had settled on using Dimarzio's because I did not care for any Duncan model I had tried and the Fender's are either to bright or too muddy. It is the DG and 59 Overwound from now on for me!" ~ John Ciardi
