They\u2019re still value for money as compared to splurging on a $100+ pickup set, but they offer as many great qualities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Strat Pickups FAQ<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/sustainpunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Single-Coil-Strat.jpg\" alt=\"Set of Single Coil Strat\" class=\"wp-image-504684\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sustainpunch.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Single-Coil-Strat.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.sustainpunch.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Single-Coil-Strat-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sustainpunch.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Single-Coil-Strat-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that we\u2019ve looked at five of the best strat pickups for your guitar, you might still have some questions, especially if you\u2019re new to the strat world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some commonly-asked questions about strat pickups and what you should know about them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>How to get a cleaner tone with your guitar?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re battling to achieve cleaner, clearer tones with your guitar, there are some important things you should do. These include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Avoiding Super Distortion pickups as these will prevent you from achieving those sparkly tones that you desire.<\/li><li>Being wise about the type of pickup you choose for your guitar. You should choose pickups according to your playing preference. So, if you play really loudly, avoid overwound pickups as they can create noise. Opt for low-output pickups instead to maintain clarity.<\/li><li>Choosing the right strings. You should choose strings that match your style. So, if you want to achieve a more classic sound, you should opt for half-rounds or flatwound strings.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3>What is the difference between telecaster and strat pickups?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The strat and telecaster <a aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"rank-math-link rank-math-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.quora.com\/Guitars-What-are-the-key-differences-between-a-Fender-Stratocaster-and-Fender-Telecaster-How-can-I-tell-the-difference-by-only-looking-at-them\" target=\"_blank\">tend to have similar electronics<\/a>, such as when it comes to master volume control. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the <a class=\"rank-math-link rank-math-link\" href=\"https:\/\/sustainpunch.com\/best-telecaster-pickup\/\">telecaster<\/a> has one tone control while the strat has tone knobs for middle and bridge pickups. That said, both possess single-coil pickups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A telecaster tends to have two single-coil pickups. Its <a class=\"rank-math-link rank-math-link\" href=\"https:\/\/sustainpunch.com\/best-humbucker-pickups\/\">bridge pickup<\/a> is usually wider and longer than what you\u2019d find on a strat. In addition, it will be mounted on the metal bridge plate. This is why it creates such a strong tone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since the telecaster\u2019s bridge pickup is longer and wider, this also means that you can\u2019t use the same pickup on the strat and tele because it just won\u2019t fit.<br><br>What about the sound? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A tele will sound like a full-bodied jazz guitar, while a strat will offer more glassy tones. That means that these pickups should be woody with \u201cplink.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the term to describe the sound when you flick the rim of a wine glass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Are Mexican strat pickups any good?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"750\" height=\"497\" src=\"https:\/\/sustainpunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/MIM-Stratocaster.jpg\" alt=\"Mexican Strat Pickup\" class=\"wp-image-504685\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sustainpunch.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/MIM-Stratocaster.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.sustainpunch.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/MIM-Stratocaster-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mexican strat is basically the Standard strat. It\u2019s sometimes called MIM, for Made In Mexico.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s been said that the Mexican strat isn\u2019t as great as the American one and this is because it falls short when it comes to sound and how it feels to play. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That said, Mexican strats have decent prices and are considered to be better than other guitars within their price range.<br><br>Some things to note about the Mexican strat is that it has cheaper pickups and bridges. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, the manufacturing process of these guitars has less strict standards when it comes to the guitar\u2019s body wood as compared to the strats that are MIA (Made In America).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For some guitar players, they start out with the MIM and then move on to the MIA at a later stage which can prove beneficial, especially if they\u2019re just starting out and don\u2019t want to spend a lot of money on their strat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After all, the price difference between an MIA and MIM can be hundreds of dollars! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, even if you intend on using it for a long time, there are MIM benefits, and these include how it\u2019s a solid guitar that won\u2019t let you down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>How to replace strat pickup?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll need the following tools to replace a strat pickup:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Soldering iron (25-40w)<\/li><li>Phillips screwdriver<\/li><li>Safety goggles<\/li><li>Wire cutters<\/li><li>String winder<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s what you need to do:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"ast-oembed-container\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How to Easily Swap Single Coil Guitar Pickups\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/SzV_62ClFaw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Remove the strings with a string winder.<\/li><li>Remove all the screws around the pickguard, but don\u2019t remove the pickup at this point.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Turn the pickguard over, being careful with it because it will still be connected to the ground wire and jack wires. Make a note of where the wires go as this will help you to install the new pickup later.<\/li><li>Use your soldering iron on the metal part of the switch. When the solder becomes hot it will enable you to remove the wires from the old pickup. It could be a good idea to use tweezers to hold the wires in place when removing them from the switch.<\/li><li>Unsolder the black ground wires from behind the volume pot.<\/li><li>Once your wires have been removed, you can unscrew the pickups.<\/li><li>You should now install the new pickup according to the way in which the old one had been connected.<\/li><li>Cut the wires of the pickup to the right length.<\/li><li>Solder the black wires to the back of the volume pot. You will have to push the outer cloth to reveal the wire so that you can solder it. If you have a pickup wire that\u2019s sheathed in plastic you\u2019ll need to use a wire stripper.<\/li><li>After you\u2019ve cut and soldered the black wire, you\u2019ll have to repeat the process with the white wires. They should be soldered to the lugs of the five-way switch.<\/li><li>Once you\u2019re done, use a screwdriver to tap the pickup magnets to ensure they make a sound at the right spots.&nbsp;<\/li><li>When you\u2019re sure that everything sounds good, you can screw in all the screws and restring your guitar.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re interested in purchasing a pickup for your strat, you should go ahead because it\u2019s a fantastic move to enhance your sound. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this article, we\u2019ve featured some of the best strat pickups on the market. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve also included some important information on strat pickups so that you can make them work for you and your music style.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you\u2019re looking for a way to freshen up your strat sound, you\u2019ll need to get your hands on a &hellip;<\/p>\n<p class=\"read-more\"> <a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sustainpunch.com\/new\/best-strat-pickups\/\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Best Strat Pickups For Your Guitar<\/span> Read More \u00bb<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1007,"featured_media":504676,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ub_ctt_via":""},"categories":[20,21],"tags":[],"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/www.sustainpunch.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Loaded-Pickguard.jpg","author_info":{"display_name":"Leo Tilton Jr.","author_link":"https:\/\/www.sustainpunch.com\/about-us\/"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v16.8 -
