Feature:
The overwound pickups help me achive the over the top distortion I crave along with the best clean sounds known to mankind, I have used these pickups to make a modern music masterpiece
Quality:
The product was as good as gold
Value:
Was worth every penny of the $99.95
Sound:
I put these pickups in my Squire Telecaster which was my favorite playing guitar. The Texas Specials made my guitar like a new guitar. Now the lead guitar player in my band keeps bothering me to sell him the guitar. The sounds I can acheive with the clean, and distortion are spectacular. I run my Telecaster live through a Fender M80 Chorus Combo amp. For my distortion I run a Seymour Duncan Pickup Booster, and a Boss Distortion Pedal. I always had distortion feedback problems with the Telecaster before with the old pickups, but I loved the sound of the clean. The new pickups made my guitar's cleans sound like a ringing bell tone. I can acheive any clean sound from country, and 60's pop twangy brightness on the bridge pickup, to almost a Les Paul clean on the neck pickup. I use 11 boomers for more meaty sound for my strings. Also I would suggest the Seymour Duncan Pickup Booster for anyone using a Telecaster that wants better distortion. I can acheive Metallica, Slayer type distortion with it. I have tried for about 5 years to find a way to turn my cheaper Telecaster into a mean machine, and Through the two Upgrades I have discussed here I have achived all I have wished for and more
Support:
Never Had to.
Overall:
I will never replace the product ever!

Feature:
can't complain really.
Quality:
great quality pickups, can't really complain about em ;)
Value:
yup, easy 10 here. Makes your telecaster sing
Sound:
Made my telecaster that much better, reduces the annoying tele feedback when I play live with it (tho I usually use my paul and SG). All in all a good investment to any telecaster owner :P
Overall:
Awesome pickups, just great. I would recommend them to any telecaster owner.
