One of the pickups was shorted put
effepunto 15.09.2020
Expected better quality control from fender custom shop. The neck pickup was short circuited, for a bad welding on the ground wire. Easy fix anyway.

About the sound, I can't find yet a decent eq, still too twangy on the attack. I'm sure it's my problem, but anyway not a fan

Great for a hotter blues sound
Rosarius 19.03.2018
I put these into an old (1981) Squier Strat to give it a more raucous Stevie Ray Vaughan type of sound. They're great. Played through a Fender valve amp, they're exactly the sound I wanted and cheaper from Thomann than the vendors in the UK. I can't comment on how easy they were to fit; I have someone do that for me, but it took him no time at all.

Excellent upgrade for Stratocaster
SteveRob 07.07.2015
If you find the pickups on your Stratocaster to sound a little thin, these pickups could be just what you need.

Texas Specials are overwound to give a bit more output so drive an amp that little bit harder. The extra windings also lose some of the harshness that you find with lower output Strat pickups.

Great sound, low (no) hum
Mateii 31.08.2020
I ended up mounting these pickups in a shielded guitar body and I was impressed about how silent they actually are. There is virtually no 50 - 60 Hz hum coming through.
The output is a bit louder than your standard singlecoil output.
I did not find them to be as "bell-sounding" as I expected them to be.
All in all the offer a great sound full of character.
