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

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 099-6103-400 Electric Guitar Bag Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a great case. The one that I bought was not the yellow tweed, actually.. I have the white/black tweed with the black interior. The compartment on the inside is nice. Great for holding things such as picks, an ebow, a slide, (it could fit a strap in there, too), capos, etc.

The quality is very nice. It holds up well.. I travel just about every weekend with a band, and after a year, it's still keeping the guitar in one piece.

My only thing is that (as suspected), white tweeds scuffs pretty easily. I imagine that the material just gets dirty easily. Yellow and white definitely. But, then again, it IS a case, so..

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 Starcaster? Electric Guitar/Amp Package - FlameTop Finish Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have this guitar pack and I have to say that the number of negative comments is amazing.I am not sure what people expect for $200.00.No! This is not a $1200.00 dollar American made strat, nor is the $500.00 Mexican made strat.It's a low cost made in China strat.

Regardless of where it was made, I found the workmanship to be very acceptable.The guitar is beautiful and the rosewood fretboard is very nice.The whole guitar has a solid feel.My only real complaint is that the center pickup has an unusually low level output.But there is no way I would return this guitar just because of a single pickup.At worst case I'd just have Fender send a replacement.And Yes! As other reviews have noted, the amp hums a little (especially at higher volumes).But, this has more to with the single coil pickups used in the guitar.If you want humbucker pickups, you're going to pay more.Also the amp is just a small 10W practice amp.It works fine for lower volume practicing.I have fallen in love with mine and play it quietly in the evenings to relax from the world.

I have a family and very little extra money.I am greatful that Fender has provided these low cost kits.It gives me the opportunity to own and relax with a Fender, something that would be questionable with a better (read more expensive) guitar.And, if the kids develop an interest, I won't cry too much if they add a few scratches to it.

Folks need to keep things in perspective.This is a low cost entry level guitar.Understanding those limitations, I highly recommend this kit to anyone just starting out.
