Fender Tex Mex Pu Set

277

Electric Guitar Pickup Set

It is fairly safe to say that the Fender Stratocaster is the most widely used electric guitar in the world, and virtually no other guitar can rival the level of scope for customisation that the Stratocaster provides. It should therefore come as no surprise that Fender also offers an extensive range of different pickups.

The Fender Tex Mex pickup is manufactured in Mexico and comes in an extremely budget-friendly set of three. As its name suggests, this pickup is designed to deliver a vintage Strat sound with added power and a higher output than the original, very much along the lines of Fender’s Texas Special pickups. This pickup can be found in guitars such as the Jimmie Vaughan Tex-Mex Strat.

  • Single coil
  • Staggered
  • Set of 3 pickups
  • Reverse wound middle pickup
  • Characteristics: The similarity to Fender's Texas Special pickups is undeniable - plenty of Strat power, but still a vintage pickup through and through!
  • Great value for money

Great sounding pups
Chas7 09.08.2019
I bought set of these for my mex tele. They are an excellent upgrade for ur Strat or any 3 single coil guitar. They sound a lot like Texas specials . They come in a lot of fender strats and even teles. The roadwork Strat I had used these. Very good highs and mids, good bottom end also. Pickups are very subjective, we all have our favorites . Some like these, some don’t. You can’t go wrong with Tex mex pups.
The mex standard pickups are ok, too muddy for my liking, these are a significant upgrade in quality. The price is good also.

Love it!
Anonymous 30.08.2016
I'm not a super expert when it comes to strat sounds but I own and I have played a few and I have to say I love the sound of this set. I tend to prefer thicker/warmer strat type of sound and this set delivers exactly the sound I prefer, very bluesy and nice for many other things too. Thomann offered a great price for this set at the time I bought it.

Good alternative for Texas Specials
LaszloM 26.11.2013
If you don't have the money for Texas Specials, but you want that kind of bluesy sound, this is a good choice for you. Lower output, thus a bit cleaner, but enough power to play blues. Cheap, delivers the sound, what else do you need?

Sounds better than the demo
Wilson WIlsonson 29.01.2021
Installed on a second hand Harley Benton Strat.
First time I heard the pickups after the installation I was baffled. I could not wished for a better clean sound.
These are a bitt "hotter" sounding pickups as standard Fender pickups, but overall can produce good clean tones and great classic rock tone.
