I If they are the true original 1961 pickups I am sure they are really thin compared to what is available now. My Strat Ultra came with the Lace Sensors and I replaced them with Van Zandts. They are still available and are a nice replacement. Not sure on the price though... try a search for Van Zandt. Good luck. Tom --- timEd 1.10.y2k * Origin: Tom's Point, Corona Ca (1:218/704.3) .
