After twenty years of playing my American HSS Strat I wanted something a little more "classic" sounding, but without the cost of having to buy a new guitar -- that's exactly what I got!
INSTALLATION: as a prewired setup the installation was super easy and only needed a little soldering to connect the jack.
SOUND: very good classic Strat sound. Perhaps the only complaint is that these pickups are quite "hot". I combatted that by lowering the pickup height (quite a lot actually) but this now sounds great.
LOOKS: the original pickguard and pickups on my Strat are the same colour, these are not (you can see that in the photo). I suppose it doesn't really matter, and now after a few months I don't even notice it anymore.

Awesome sound!

I've been waiting a long time for these pickups to get restocked, and when they finally did I snatched a pair quickly.
The sound is just amazing, there's a huge difference between al three of the pickups and they all sound great!
Quality wise there is absolutely nothing to complain about, as with all higher end Fender products. I wish Gibson did things the way Fender does.

I knew Texas Specials were legendary but man i did not expect what i heard!! No humming, unbelievable balance lows and mids and punchy highs! To me this is the definition of the pure rock sound of the 70s. I would recommend this set without a second thought. Excellent job Fender!
