Find Your Next Pick｜Mojotone Crandellcaster '62 Strat® Guitar Pickup｜ Other Products

Prepare to turn your Strat into a musical time machine! Mojotone was lucky enough to get our hands on an original 1962 Fender Stratocaster, bought by Wayne Powell Crandell in 1962 and left to his son upon his passing. This guitar perfectly exemplified the simple elegance of early Stratocasters, marked with the scars of forgotten adventures, and one listen let us know that it still had plenty of stories to tell. (See the video here.) So naturally, Mojotone was inspired to do what we do best: recreate this sound so that you can have it too! To capture the magic of 1962, we made everything exactly to the specs that Fender used at the time: hand-beveled Alnico 5 rod magnets, vulcanized fiberboard flatwork, a non-RWRP middle pickup and lightly wax potted coils hand-wound with 42-gauge Formvar coil wire.We put a great deal of time and effort into giving these the sound and feel of original 1962 Strat pickups. It is like being transported back to the year when John Glenn first orbited the Earth, the Twist was the latest and greatest dance craze, and the world was about to hear Bob Dylan, The Beach Boys and The Beatles for the first time. For many of us, buying an actual 1962 Strat is a virtual impossibility, but our Crandellcaster 1962 Clone Strat Pickups will get you as close to that tone as you can get without robbing a museum.
All of our pickups are proudly built in Burgaw, NC!
