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.
