difference between 92 62ri pups and 57/62ri pups

[skip62]

I played a 92 62 reissue last weekend and really liked the tone. I've seen some 57/62 pups on ebay, and I'm interested in purchasing them. So I have 2 questions.
are the 57/62 reissue pups the same as what come in the new USA 62 reissues? and what's the difference between them and pups on 92 62 reissue? The reason for the second questions is the newer pups have beveled edges and the older ones don't.

Thanks for the help

The new design ones have beveled edges older ones from 1982-1998 dont. The newer ones have different wire and are a copy of a 1963 Strat pickup.

Thanks Mark, much appreciated.

The new ones also sound worlds better than the old ones. Really noticeable.

I agree 100%

Thanks for info. I found a loaded pickguard with the 57/62 beveled poles. Can't wait to get them in my old Beck and get rid of those stupid gold lace sensors.
