Hi dude, I just bought a MIM and I wanna buy the 57/62 pickups. When you changed the default pickups for the 57/62 ones, did you notice a big or a small upgrade/change? Do you recomend them? Greetings

Its a big difference. the 57/62s have less output and sound "thinner". But along with that, they sound clearer when using distortion. There's a lot more sweetness, chime, and they just sound more "vintage".

They are some of the brighter pickups that Fender makes. the bridge pickup can get a little harsh. If you want something with more bass, look into the custom shop '54 set. Those sound a little stronger.

I like them and wouldn't mind purchasing them again.

Thanks very much. try if you can to play a few as 85 to 90% of them sound and feel "right", but there's always that one chance if you get the first one you see, or buy one on the net, you might get a dud. That can happen with any manufacturer though

All in all, i wish you the best am I think you'll be pleased.

With good pickups, they are sweet guitars!

if you don't like it that's up to you. Everyone sucks when starting out.

Sounds good. I'm looking at buying a Mexican Strat. You're helping convince me.
