Please note – You would need to add an extra 24 – 48 hours to the lead time when ordering our prewired pickguards as we make them specially for each order.
Pickups: Karman Dual Rail KR15 (9k output) in the neck and middle and KR35 (14k output) in the bridge
Wiring: Pickups have shielded 4 core PVC coated wire and the pots and switch are wired up with cloth wire, all wiring and assembling is done here in South Africa by us, as neat and clean as possible. Also if you have a custom request please email us. These pickups have coil splitting abilities, if you want to coil split them via push pull or toggle switch let us know and we can work something out.
Potentiometers: Full sized brass shaft potentiometer Audio Taper (A500k) for Master Volume, 2 x Audio Taper (A500k) for tone with 0.022uF High quality Capacitor, neck and middle pickup connected to tone 1 and bridge on on tone 2.

Knobs: Black plastic strat knobs (we can also use Chrome dome top metal knobs or different colour – let us know via email)
Pickup covers: Black bobbins with steel blades
Switch tip colour: Black (other colours are available for custom orders – email us with your custom request)
Solderless or Solder-in: This prewired pickguard comes standard as Solderless where you use your existing wires coming from your jack and your bridge claw and connect them to a terminal connector on top of the volume pot. We can also make this with 2 wires that must be soldered to your output jack and one wire that must be soldered to your bridge claw for grounding – let us know if you want to swop the solderless connector for the extra wires connected that you can use to replace your existing wires.
PLEASE NOTE: This pickguard is the exact layout and spec as USA/MEX Strat, it will fit Squier too, though sometimes the screw holes won’t line up 100 percent and you must make new ones. It may fit other guitars with some retrofitting, but we can not guarantee this since there are too many variations of the Strat. Also take note that the switch is larger than the cheaper import switch which may require some extra routing to your body where the switch goes depending on your routing depth (35mm is required) some guitars like Bullet and Affinity Squier have very shallow routing. By purchasing this prewired pickguard we will assume you have removed your current pickguard and checked your routing cavity and we will also assume you are willing to make some modifications if your guitar does not have the same mounting layout as standard USA/MEX Fender.
