Fender Custom Shop Pickups Strat Texas Specials (Set Of 3) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If you are going to replace your old pickups,in your low end Strat, with Texas specials you need to change the pots,switch,and the capacitor.Stewart-MacDonald (stewmac.com)has the replacement parts kit.The older strats didn't have the cheap parts in them like they do today.And the cheap parts will keep your strat sounding like crap no matter what pick-up you put in them.

I have done the whole electronics makeover on my Squier and it does not matter which amp I plug into...it shreds.

Fender Accesories 099-2117-000 Electric Guitar Part Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Good sound - the middle is NOT reverse wound/reverse polarity so when selecting position 2 or 4 there is no hum canceling. There is also none of the drop in volume found in modern strats.

To eliminate the noise I expected I completely shielded the cavity and pickguard with copper foil. The grounds were strengthened and moved to a single point (no solder to pots)

There is no noise at all until the vol pot is opened up above 8 - then it is just kind of warm - no microphonic squeals at all - don't see a need to wax the pickups.

Great vintage tone - clear bell/piano like tones - using a 30watt tube - this is the sound I was after

LR Baggs M1 Soundhole Magnetic Acoustic Guitar Pickup Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I put this pickup in my workhorse guitar - a Sigma Martin from the 70's. That's sort of like putting a V8 engine into an old VW bug. I plugged it into my Fishman Loudbox acoustic amp and it sounds amazing. I was concerned about it being a passive pickup but it's powerful, clear, and makes my guitar sound better than it actually is.

Product Description:
The LR Baggs M1 acoustic guitar pickup is the world's first body-sensitive soundhole magnetic pickup, eliminating the trade-off between convenience and performance. From your first strum you'll know that the M1 is pure magic. What makes it so different? The secret is the breakthrough patent-pending TriAxial Dynamic Technology developed by Gary Garrett and Lloyd Baggs. This new technology allows the pickup to respond to the guitar's string and body vibrations. It's never been easier to get superior live sound!LR Baggs M1 FeaturesCompletely passive operation: no batteries to worry aboutQuiet, hum-free operation under the most challenging live conditionsHighly feedback resistantAdjustable pole pieces with smooth threadless tops preserve fingerstylists' nailsBuilt-in gold-plated 1/8 inch jack makes moving or removing the pickup a snapIncludes a prewired strapjack harness and a 12 foot Mogami audiophile-grade cableLR Baggs M1 - ExposedThe M1 is a humbucking pickup - with a twist. In a common stacked humbucker, the second, lower coil cancels hum, but doesn't contribute anything positive to the sound. In fact, it can muddy the sound of the main coil. We unlock the second coil. This allows it to make a positive sonic contribution while maintaining the pure open sound of a single coil - but without the hum.LR Baggs Triaxial Dynamic Technology ExposedIn the M1, the hum-canceling coil is suspended under the main coil by a tuned support that allows it to move in three dimensions. The primary coil moves with the guitar top and creates a body signal in the suspended secondary coil. This brings the LR Baggs M1 to life, with string and body sound all in one. It's like having a dual pickup system in your soundhole.And it's all passive!LR Baggs has carefully tuned the support to control motion in all three dimensions. This allowed th

Fender Vintage Noiseless Stratocaster Pickups Set White, 3 Pickups Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My old Squier Strat Korean edition had been dusty and ignored in a corner of my basement until I desided it to buy these pickups. The task was not easy because the instructions from Fender are very poor. You have to do some guess work mostly with the bridge pickup, the knobs, and the five-way switch. When you detach the old pickguard with the electronic, keep it as a reference. If you are upgrading your Squire chances are that you have to make more space for the new pickups in the body of your guitar carving some wood. But after a couple of trial and errors, the money and time spent was worth it. Wow! What a great fender classic sound! Do not hesitate and upgrade your guitar... NOW! As a final note, make sure that you have all the tools you need and you are going to need a new pickguard for sure.

Fender Accesories 099-2114-000 Electric Guitar Part Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The thing that sets these pickups apart is that they produce the purest clean highs. If you want the fat Texas blues sound, these are not going to do it for you without a distortion pedal.On the other hand, if you want the "Little Wing" sound, these are for you.I like them because you have a choice.You can get a clean, classic Strat sound and still get a bluesy sound by adding a distortion pedal.Remember that Jimi Hendrix played current (at the time) brand new strats, so this is essentially the sound he started with to create his final sound.

By the way, the set that I got did not have a reverse wound middle pickup.That may have been a mistake on Fender's part, I don't know.I mention it in case it's important to you.

For some reason, they don't get as much attention as other Fender pickups, but I am extremely happy with them.

Fender Accesories 099-2105-000 Strat Hot Noiseless Pickups, Aged White, Set Of 3 Electric Guitar Part Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)These are great pickups. I popped these into my Mexican Strat along with some locking tuners and upgraded electronics (all told around $200) and it sounds better that most stock American Strats now. Installation was simple (if you are not handy with a soldering iron have a shop take care of it) although I was a little confused that the bridge pickup had the differently colored wires and not the middle pickup (which is usually wired out of phase with the neck and bridge).
