Do these pickups have plastic bobbins?

The Strat version has a molded plastic bobbin. I suppose the Tele version would too.

Thats correct both the Tele and Strat versions of the 50's 60's pickups are plastico. LOL sorry for my broken spanish.

Thanks a lot guys! What about the '70's Strat? Actually, if you guys could tell me every model that has Plastic bobbin pickups (Tele and Strat), that would be very appreciated! :)

Thanks!

The 70's Classic is a different part number they also use that same pickup in the HWY1 series.

I havent seen one in person but my guess its plastic also.

The MIM's are gonna all be plastic is my guess except the Cray and Jimmie Vaughan.

The '70s Classic pickups in my Hwy1 Strat had molded plastic bobbins.

Mark,
The Jimmy Vaughan's aren't plastic? Wow... thanks for telling me!

I have to change my ad now... haha

incase you're wondering, I do have a use for plastic bobbins, so don't think I'm just asking stupid questions to pass time. :)
