For illusion Pickups the '56 Fender Stratocaster it's the holy grail for blues tone and to be lucky enough to find one that was this hot is short of amazing especially for the following years '54  to '59. We made sure to recapture the true essence of the original '56 pickups Fender delivered tonally(thank you Leo).

Nailing the tonal qualities is an understatement. We crushed it with the strong bell tone that is heard loud and clear with room to spare. Call it a knack if you will. Illusion Pickups has the years of experience to hand wind pickups with little or no 60 cycle hum. This is one of our trademarks for the quality of product we produce. If that isn't enough for you, every pickup we sell comes with a lifetime guarentee which tells you that Illusion pickups stands behind every product we make.
