help identifying pickups

[royc]

Got these installed in my tele and are supposedly fender original vintage but the color of the bridge wires does not look right. Any ideas on what they are please?

Welcome to the forum!
Look like real ov pickups, maybe just had the bridge pickup wire replaced.

Something not right there compared to Fender OV's I have pics of. IF someone would have changed the one lead (strange deal) from yellow the black lead should be on the right anyway, looking from the top.


I'm just thinkin' those are some other brand.

Did some google and found fralin bridge pups that has the same wire colors, however, they did not come with springs but what looks like rubber spacers. My neck pup's cover is also similar to seymour duncan's. I'm confused.

fralin pups


ov pups


seymour duncan

Some people don't like to use the tubing so use springs. That may have been what was in there when they changed the pups.

I was also going to say, if someone had changed the leads, the did one hell of a good job !!

I think you found 'em.

so it's probably a fralin bridge and seymour duncan neck. previous buyer of this guitar probably just assumed they were ov pups :-)

tnx!
