Feature:
The full set of 3 pickups is very reasonably priced for a complete set, and includes new potentiometers. I must confess I didn't replace the old pots though; I'll always wonder if that's some mysterious part of my Strat's wonderful tone now.

Quality:
7 years of use, no failures, no complaints. I gig regularly with them and the most I've ever had to do is re-solder a tailpiece ground wire. And that's certainly not the pickups' fault. The gold 'Noiseless' logo has all but faded off the covers, however. I consider that a pretty minor complain though.

Value:
For $130, this was one of the best music deals I've ever gotten. A full set of 3 fantastic sounding pickups that eliminate the age-old problem of Strat noise and give your guitar a tone boost besides. To compare, for my Les Paul copy it's more like $90 a pickup for Seymour Duncans (not to diss SD, they are fantastic too).

Desirability:
They look pretty nice going into you guitar, but they are pickups so the difference is subtle.

Sound:
I replaced my stock single coils in my 70's reissue Mexican Stratocaster with these. It has an ash body, maple neck, and rosewood fretboard. To put it simply, the sound is fantastic. The neck and mid pickups have a shimmery, lovely clean sound. The bridge clean tone is appropriately twangy and has a nice bite and honk. Most surprisingly is that I get a very full, rich, deep bass out of the neck and mids with these pickups. I got them so I could play with distortion without drowning in noise. They are every bit as quiet as the humbuckers in my Les Paul, but with the added benefit of improving the stock single coil sound I had. You're able to play with a lot more gain with these, since the noise disappears. You can get some good rock sounds out of a guitar with these pickups, although they may have a touch too much treble for really high-gain applications. They also aren't nearly as high output as a lot humbuckers. But I've never heard any humbuckers with such nice clean tones either.

Ease of Use:
For a pickup installation, very easy. I have no soldering experience other than wiring in these pickups and I did OK. For the price of a tech install I bought a soldering pencil and did it myself. Word to the wise though - use a real soldering gun instead of a soldering pencil. The pencils just aren't powerful enough for the job.

Support:
Never had to use the support, so I don't know.

Overall:
Well worth the time and money. Get rid of your Strat noise and improve the tone all with one small investment in time and money.

Feature:
it did come with new pots, which was nice. The noiseless logo did look cool, but if your trying to look vintage, then the word noiseless doesnt go with your theme very well now does it? lol

Quality:
Well considering the fact that i think one of the pickups i recieved had a reverse polarity neck pickup?, very strange, so had to install the wires opposite on it. The wires are pretty thick, so no danger in breaking one of them.

Value:
good price, if you like the sound of them, then sure its a great bargain, even just for the price alone its worth it to upgrade

Sound:
Lush harmonics in the number 2 position, bridge/middle, these would be the abosolute perfect pickups for a twelve string strat! However these are not good with distortion, i personally thinked they lacked character, even when played clean

Ease of Use:
i didnt install these ones, and the people who did install them had a very tuff time getting them to work right.

Support:
It fender, one of the top manufactures, has to be good

Feature:
I give this an 8 because they come in only one color, that icky aged cream and you can't get any other color of pickup covers to match your pickplate because the pole separation is proprietary.

Quality:
It's a solid set of pickups, and after a year, they're still working, but they just don't produce the sounds I'm looking for.

Value:
For the price, these pickups are a great deal. They just don't give me what I want as far as low noise and vibrant tones. I'm ripping them out and replacing them with Dimarzio Area 58's, which I hear a LOT of good things about as far as not producing so much hum and giving better tones, AND working very well with distortion. I mean, come on folks, who wants to play an electric guitar without distortion? Even clean, these pickups could be better.

Desirability:
You know, they don't really look good unless you like the faded vintage look, but they say "Vintage" on them and that kind of blows it.

Sound:
I give this a 7 for sound because they do have a very nice vintage stratocaster "belltone" sound, but they DO NOT WORK WITH DISTORTION, even a little bit of distortion. They also do not have that warm tone that you can get from even an Epiphone Les Paul, with stock Korean pickups.

Ease of Use:
You can only get that high-treble "quacky" sound and in the bridge position, it's a bit too bright and not warm enough in the neck position.

Support:
Never dealt with them.

Overall:
Like I said, I'm just not happy with these pickups. Believe me, I WANT to be happy with them, and I applaud anyone who has left good reviews and likes the tone. For each their own. I tried to convince myself that they were what I wanted, since I spent so much money on them and had paid to have someone put them in, but in the long run, I gotta face the fire and confess that I really don't like them. I made a bad decision. The original stock pickups in the Highway one were just ghastly as far as hum, I mean they were just unbearable. However, these are just "weak."

Feature:
they are pickups

Quality:
ive had the guitar about 3 years..no pickup prob;ems, i mean what can go wrong? they are pickups!

Value:
the price is not too bad.

Desirability:
i would put these in any guitar i get in the future.

Sound:
my jeff beck model strat came with these pickups. they are very versitile and have alot of nice tone. i replaced the bridge because it was not beefy enough. however the pickups in the other two positions are really kicking ass!

Ease of Use:
they are pickups

Support:
ive dealt with fender alot over the years and they always stood by their stuff

Overall:
its what i choose to use.

Sound:
I purchased these about 4 years ago for an older (Blazer) Ibanez Strat clone. I really like these pickups. The factory Ibanez pickups were pretty weak and captured a lot of noise. The Fender noisless are stronger, noisless, and produce that wonderful Strat tone. I use a Fender Hot Rod Deluxe amp that contributes to the tone as well, but have played through other amps and have been pleased. Over all I would give them a 9 out of possible 10.

Feature:
If you are only looking to cancel noise then this is what you want to use. If you want to cancel noise and get a good sound, do not use these. Use Seymour Duncan humbuckers instead.

Quality:
These are just terrible pickups. Maybe if you're going for some low-level kind of alt/folk or something it might be good, but if you're playing rock, or even blues these pickups will disappoint you.

Value:
Again, very low. These aren't great pickups, so it's not like you could take them out of your guitar and get a handsome reward for them. Also, it's not like someone will see your guitar equipped with these and immediately covet it.

Desirability:
I have two of these in my Strat at the moment. They are only there until i can buy new pickups for it. I actually can't wait to take them out. I hate these things.

Sound:
The sound of these pickups are very lifeless and flat. Overdriving your amp is pretty pointless, as the pickups just render a weak sound. The pickups do cancel out noise, but that's really all they do.

Ease of Use:
You put it in and select the pickups. It's quite easy. But that's just the way a pickup works, they don't deserve much credit for that.

Support:
I have not had to get support on these.

Quality:
Sloppy third rate construction. Had to redrill holes to mount it in the pick guard.

Value:
I would look for a better constructed more reliable replacement. I was very disappointed with this product.

Sound:
Hire an American to build it.

Support:
Warranty is only valid if you are an "authorized" fender repairman. Middle pickup failed after 6 months.

Feature:
it'd be nice if Fender trashed the volume compensating cap and resistor, and included a smaller tone cap

Desirability:
in a vintage strat, having noiseless on the pup covers doesn't work

Sound:
height setting is critical-too high,no sustain and too low,brittle

Support:
none

Feature:
The instructions were confusing, quite simple installation.

Quality:
Good quality, better magnets than the standard single coils.

Value:
It's a fair price, but a few less bucks would be better.

Sound:
It has the Clapton sound, just play "Bell Bottom Blues" with them and you'll know what i'm talking about. Less noise, HOWEVER, if you don't put your hand over the strings you will manage to hear a "buzz", that's something strange about this pickups..not very reliable "noiseless" pickups.

Support:
Own a bunch of Fender products, such as an Twin Reverb amp, one Texas Special and of course a Fender American Standard Strat.

Overall:
Nice vintage sound, I achieved that Clapton sound that I wanted. However, not much of that "noiseless" experience.
