When I was first checking out my Fender Jaguar (a '66) the folks at Elderly told me it had really juicy pickups. Which it does…they're thicker sounding than the Jag norm. Not too many years after I got the guitar, Forrest White put out a book about his time at Fender. In it he says one of the things that drove him to quit his job was a directive from the CBS muckety mucks to wind Jaguar pickups with 43 gauge wire, I guess due to a temporary shortage of 42 gauge. This was in mid 1966, right around when my Jag was made.
