They're EMG pickups, they came stock in Johnson guitars. It looks like the "Johnson EMG" has rubbed off. They're basically just repackaged EMG S1s

I built a proper cyclone out of a paranormal cyclone. My favourite band Brand New's lead guitar play had one and I just thought that I needed one of these things. Despite being a squire it has become my number one... out of two haha

On the newer ones have fender fixed the bridge location issue ? The original MIM have the bridges set too close to the neck making it impossible to intonate the guitar correctly without fitting a new bridge. The intonation screws ran out of travel.

I just got my MIJ Lake Placid Blue Cyclone a couple of weeks ago. My very first guitar was the MIM Cyclone so I had to grab this model. I was pleasantly surprised with the pickups as well. Much hotter than my MIJ Mustang and a touch hotter than my MIJ Jaguar but not too hot. Fender Japan is the way to go! Thanks for making this video--you saved me from having to take mine apart!

I had a red Cyclone 2 but it was wicked heavy. Are the MIJ Cyclone's mad heavy also?

I've had my graffiti yellow Mexican Cyclone since 2005. People always told me it was ugly 😢

Love this! Have a banana white MIM which I absolutely love. I want a cyclone ii so I can put my creamery jag pickups in it :)

In 97/98 when they first appear, the grunge era was over by a few years and Cyclone is so close to being a Mustang - it was a weird time for Fender to release this model.

Amazing timing! I have a squire Cyclone and I occasionally look for Fender version. Just learned about this MIJ release, and now I'm trying to figure out how to fund one.

Thank you for this. Been considering one of these since they were announced. Think this has helped me confirm I want one. Your custom build sounds awesome btw!
