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

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

The product was as good as gold

Was worth every penny of the $99.95

Never Had to.

Mostly Rock, but anything that I feel, or challanges me.

rock, blues

Overall sound was good. The bridge pickup was to lean for my choice of sound. Really impressed with the tones which I was able to achieve using the neck pickup, truly impressive. Ended up changing the bridge pickup back out going witha different brand with a little fatter sound.Playing country, southern rock, alternative, and R&B.

Product was recieved with evrything i needed for install including wiring diagrams.

Like i said earlier, only was impressed with neck pickup, but insatallation was not difficult if one is able to use a sloder gun, read wiring diagrams, and own a few screw drivers.

Little pricy but not really higher than any other brands compairable.

Fender product, need I say more!

active musician

country, rock. alternative,

Loud w/ unwanted feedback on the clean channel (let alone gain...forget about it!) in my MIM 2 piece ash telecaster. It's like sticking a condenser mic in the body, picks up every little tap. Has a 10k dc resistant...really high output. May not work w/ all tele/amp setups.

Does give te option for the 4 way tele switch.

It's pup.

The coil wires coming from the solderd taps are very exposed, not counter sunk, therefore I broke one but didn't seem to effect the sound. And the FB was there b4.

Not needed.

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

can't complain really.

great quality pickups, can't really complain about em ;)

yup, easy 10 here. Makes your telecaster sing
