5.0 out of 5 stars Getting rid of the hum and the sound of the tone
I have put the vintage noiseless pickups in my mexican fender player, I also use a Valeton gp 200 pedal, which has very distorted mods and there is literally no hum . It really takes it away. and the sound clean is fantastic!!
5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing!
Beautiful pickups that have transformed my 2003 Squier Strat! They sound great especially in a live setting.Fully recommend.
5.0 out of 5 stars get what you pay for
yes excellent product
4.0 out of 5 stars Very good set — work well together
The media could not be loaded. In an earlier review (that I can’t edit) I stated that this loaded ‘guard comes with a 500k volume pot. Well the one I bought used, previously must have been altered, because I bought another one for an American special strat that I use a lot, and it had the 250k/500k dual gang volume and 2x 1meg time pots.It’s great. The wiring is tidy, soldering likewise.I’m a fan of the Shawbucker. It is microphonic and will suffer mic-style feedback easily on loud stages with higher gain settings, but if you control that with your positioning and volume pot you are rewarded with a much twangier, livelier humbucker than a JB or similar. That might not be what you’re after, but it does country and rock/metal convincingly and matches well with strat sounds.The N4 noiseless are also great. They don’t sound exactly like single coils, the neck is fat and round and like an exaggerated tele neck pup, kind of… but, the inbetween setting is actually very convincing and you can get a very stratty tone.Their noise-cancelling is very useful in bars with old-fashioned dimmer switched lighting. I have one regular gig like this and I can’t use normal single coils there — it’s why I use these N4 and have tried a few other noiseless type single coils. These are my favourite so far, and have become my go to.I also have two American Pro II strats with dual gang volumes and the later ‘double tap’ Shawbucker — which have a coil split and are quite a bit less microphonic than the Shawbucker.Solid choice for a quiet, versatile strat setup.
5.0 out of 5 stars For me, a decent upgrade
After having spent money of a couple of decent Telecasters last year, I decided to go to the other extreme and buy the cheapest guitar on Bolo which turned out to be a Glarry Strat type guitar. Given its price, it is a reasonably playable instrument but very much amenable to upgrading.I had decided it was going to be an ongoing project for 2024, and the first thing I decided was to upgrade the pickups. I wanted to get something better without breaking the bank, so decided on the Tex-Mex pickups pre-installed on the scratchplate. First thing to note is that the scratchplate is design to fit a genuine Fender (or Squier) instrument, and the screw holes are not all in the same place as on a copy instrument. This wasn't an issue as it is quite easy to screw in the screws where there isn't a hole, at least on this instrument.The bigger issue in this instance was that the cutout for the neck needed to be cut down as the next on the Glarry has a larger heel than a Fender. This just required a decent sharp knife and some patience, although I suspect a Dremmel tool would make pretty short work of it.Compared to the stock pickups, these pickups have plenty of balls. I'm not normally much of a fan of a Strat bridge pickup on its own, but in this case it gives a lovely usable tone with a bit of light overdrive. The in-between positions give that classic Strat "quack".I would recommend this as a worthwhile upgrade to a lower spec instrument, and it's tripled the value of the original guitar too :D
5.0 out of 5 stars Noiseless and still sounds like a strat
I have the noiseless set. These are vintage noiseless Alnico2 type. Not the hot ones. They really work. I have fitted them to my USA 60th anniversary strat. My music room has a load of RFI in the air for some reason and now the guitar is super quiet in there. The volume knob has a treble pass so the hi tone is preserved at lower volumes. Even though these are stacked humbuckers they still have that single coil sound. Position 2 and 4 still quack. Looking forward to trying these in the church band where I often have issues picking up the hearing aid loop feed. I paid £189 on a deal for the full pick guard set. I am super happy with these.
5.0 out of 5 stars super charge the Strat
20 years ago I was in the market for a Strat. I could only afford a Fender Mexican Strat at the time. It hung on the wall ,in the guitar shop, for what seemed ages. When it was in the sale, I bought it. I play Knoffler, Gilmour classic stuff. It has done a job but seemed to lack a little something. I have changed hum buckers in Yamaha guitars in the past, not for a better tone but one nearer the tone I was going for. I do not solder often and thus looked at the pre wired Mex special scratch plate option to reduce the amount of soldering to do during the change .-ve's. Obviously more expensive than just a set of three pickups on their own. The pre-wired set cost almost what I payed for the guitar! Not all the scratch plate screw holes match up with the previous scratch plate holes. No new shinny screws. Not an issue really but I had to drill a small hole for the additional earth wire.+ve's The tone is impressive. No new kit will turn you into a rock god but it inspires you to play more. My partner noticed the improvement in tone straight away. She said you can sound like Floyd and Straits after all! !!!! Less soldering and faff than if you bought just a set of new pickups. Easy to install. Watch the Youtube vid first just to see how to do it. Basically Fender "60's pickups. If you changed these on a top grade Fender you may not notice the improvement but on my Mexican made Strat, or I guess on a Squire or similar, you will notice the improvement.If you are old enough, my Blonde Mexican Strat was a Fiesta, now it is an XR2. I'm just going to open the windows and wind the volume up. Time for a go faster stripe I feel!
1.0 out of 5 stars 5 way switch was faulty on delivery
Poor soldering in general, I had to re- fix the wires on the switch to get it working. Very poor from Fender .
IL Suono Fender Stratocaster
Cablaggio impeccabile e stessi componenti delle custom shop. Facilissimo fare upgrade della chitarra. Bastano tre saldature e via con il classico suono strato anni 50 un po' più grasso ma sempre con il medesimo dna.

Originale Mexican Strat Pickups? Ja, kann man machen und damit den Sound seiner, was auch immer man für eine DIY Gitarre hat, bedeutend vom Klang her verbessern. Der Preis tut etwas weh, aber man bekommt auch etwas dafür.Der Sound ist kristallklar. Der Einbau ist super einfach und nicht kompliziert.
さすがノイズレス、でも、やっぱりUSA
94年製、フェンダージャパン(フジゲン製)のST-STDに装着、ストラトのシングルコイル特有のノイズをどうにかしたかったのと、他の中国産ピックアップ付きピックガードが、いまひとつ信用できなかったのと、ギターの本数をこれ以上増やせない苦肉の策として購入。音はさすがのノイズレス、結構歪ませてもノイズは皆無、音は定番の音「これぞFender」と言う音、どっちかと言えば、リアハムバッカーもトレブリーな感じ。トーンの振れ幅が結構大きいかな？これでだいぶ弾きやすくなるし、ボリュームも固めで、ストラトによく有る弾いてて、だんだんボリュームが下がる問題も無し。で、タイトルにあるように、でも、やっぱりUSA、センターピックアップ左手にあるネジ穴がジャパンと違うので、当然入らず、また、ネックジョイントの切りカキのところがパツパツなので、画像にあるように歪んでしまった、ヤスリで削ればまぁいいんだけど、まるごとギター1本買うよりは、調整範囲も少なくて、かえってお得かと、後はライブで使ってどうなるか楽しみだなぁ。
