Poor Quality and Quality Control

Reviewed in the United States on April 26, 2019

Style: Traditional - 57/62Verified Purchase

It never occurred to me that I needed to do a continuity test on a new set of pickups; I stupidly assumed that new pickups would simply work (as they do from other manufacturers). So I did a full electronics rebuild on a Strat copy only to find the middle pickup didn't work. When tested this pickup showed infinite resistance indicating a broken coil.

But that was just the insult to the injury caused by these pickups. The ones that did work have the worst 60 cycle hum I've ever heard on any pickup; I couldn't even leave the soldering iron on if it was in the same room while I was checking connections. The screws provided didn't fit the mounting holes even after I scraped out the gunk Fender had used to cover the induction coil mounting plates. The hot leads on two of the pickups were mounted too close to the coil, preventing the covers from seating properly. And if all this wasn't enough, 3 of the six leads on the set of pickups were cold soldered. Lesson learned; future builds will not include any Fender components.

Edit: I don't think these were actual Fender pickups.

I couldn't believe Fender quality had gotten so bad, so I took a chance and ordered another set (Tex Mex this time). The difference was night and day. The new set were correctly soldered, the windings were good, and the backs were marked with output and position. So: apologies to Fender and shame on Amazon for allowing fakes to be sold under the Fender name.

Overall Very Disappointed

Reviewed in the United States on September 4, 2019

Style: Traditional - Texas SpecialVerified Purchase

First off, these pickups came "Recommended from Amazon." I am a seasoned, experienced player and always wanted a set of Texas Specials so I ordered them. Being a father of three, I don't have many "toys," nor do I usually spend money on things that I want. Just like some other reviewers stated, upon arrival, one pickup was dead. A completely non-functional neck p'up that read continuous continuity (broken internal wire, no resistance). I returned the set and Amazon promptly replaced them with a new set (came in a cracked case though) and on that set, the bridge pickup, which usually reads the "hottest," with a resistance of 6.7k output, was actually the weakest of the three and came with a paltry reading of 5.3k. I went ahead and installed them, seeing how the packaging arrived damaged and I assumed Amazon would think I did it, and other than the imbalanced output of the pickups, the tone is there and much improved over the stock, ceramic pickups that come in a MIM Stratocaster. However, the number two switch position (bridge and middle) sounds pathetic and the lower bass strings sound dead and subdued when that position is engaged. That in and of itself is not a deal breaker for me as that has always been my least favorite Strat pickup selection, but for the price I paid for premium "custom shop," pickups, they should be flawless. Especially considering these were the second set that came to me. Overall, after waiting 10 YEARS for my Texas Specials, and purchasing something "nice," for myself instead of for my family, I find myself very disappointed and wishing I had spent the money on some Seymour Duncans or other aftermarket quality pickup. And the fact that these were "Amazon Recommended," is probably the biggest insult of all. I'm normally a very positive person that doesn't complain about things, but my profound feeling of buyer's remorse compels me to share my experience. You may get lucky and get a pristine, perfect set, but I gave them two chances and still I walk away wishing I didn't buy them.

Fender 69's sound great in a variety of musical styles

Reviewed in the United States on August 18, 2015

Style: Traditional - Custom Shop 69Verified Purchase

I installed these pickups in July of 2015, and I was immediately blown away by the results. These pickups are very well-balanced, articulate (even with a lot of gain), and very much convey that classic strat tone we all know and love. I know, because this was the 3rd set of pickups I installed in my guitar ('06 Clapton Strat). The noiseless were to strong, and with the TBX setup, I couldn't get a clean strat sound with the volume above 6.5.
Then I thought I would go in a totally different direction with DiMarzio HS-2 and HS -3"s. That didn't work out either. Figured I had nothing to lose by ordering these, and was actually surprised that they actually were pretty great. Wide range of tones, all combinations sound great, I can use the tone knobs again - all new territory for my guitar.

Note: these pickups won't aren't designed great metal tones or give you "The Brown Sound". If that's what you are after, you shouldn't be looking here anyway. Think humbuckers and 5150s...

Highly recommended

Great real Strat tone without the noise

Reviewed in the United States on June 10, 2019

Style: Traditional - Hot NoiselessVerified Purchase

I bought these to replace the stock pickups in my Levinson Blade guitar (a Strat copy with higher quality). The original pickups had extremely bad 60 cycle hum. It was so bad that I couldn't even use the high gain on my Mesa/Boogie Mark IV amp. I was skeptical of the Hot Noiseless (Jeff Beck) pickups, but gave them a shot after reading the reviews. They exceeded my expectations. Not only is the noise gone (95% of it), but the tone is very authentic. I cannot imagine anyone being disappointed with these if you are genuinely seeking the Strat tone. The bridge pickup actually gets pretty heavy and stays tight, making it good for hard rock. No, these are not the best choice for metal, but that's not what these were designed for. There are some Strat purists out there that complain that noiseless pickups don't give as authentic of a tone as the original Strat pickups. While they are right, you're still going to get 95% of the real Strat tone with these pickups, and you'll be able to use them with any amount of gain. You can't really use the originals in high gain situations because of the 60 cycle noise. The bottom line is, these sound fantastic and are a huge upgrade from the stock Levinson pickups I had. I was even able to keep the same pickup covers on these to keep the original look of my guitar. Just be aware -- the pickup ribbon wires are very delicate, so do NOT take off the tape that they include with them. You have to be very careful with how you handle the pickups.

Really great, Woooooodstock (Second time round)

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 2, 2019

Style: Traditional - Custom Shop 69Verified Purchase

So with my first set, after an hour of installing, stripping, checking and re-checking, it turned out that the neck pickup was utterly dead. Annoyingly so was my mutli-meter so I couldn't actually check them before putting them in. Mildly annoyed that this can happen in a brand like Fender at this price point, but I guess there are probably a lot of factors that can affect how they perform long after they've left the factory.

Anyhow, one extremely easy return later, my replacement set arrived, and are absolute perfection (was able to test them first this time!). These Custom 69s have really blown me away if I'm honest. Bright and loud, but not overpoweringly so like the Texas specials. With a basic Strat set-up, every position was pretty much dead on for me and I was so impressed with the versatility of sound across the five switch positions. You can totally nail that authentic Hendrix/Knopfler/Cray/Clapton Strat sound with absolute ease. The neck position gives you that lovely richer tone, down to the amazing twang of the bridge and combinations in between to give you just about every nuance of vintage Strat sound you could want.

So aside from highly recommending these, my advice when buying any new pickups based on my experience here is that a small multi-meter is invaluable! So if you don’t have one, well worth getting. Basically an MM will enable you to check the function of each pickup before you start trimming wires, soldering and installing. It’s so simple to do and will save you a massive headache with poorly wired, or plain dud pick-ups.

Basically, switch your multi-meter to read Ohms (and the 20k setting if it supports separate values) and then with each pickup: hold one probe to the earth wire (black) and one to the hot/live wire (white) and you’ll get a reading. The pick-up box should tell you the expected resistance reading of the pick-ups on the back (Custom 69 is about 5.8K from memory) so you want this reading to:

1. Be somewhere within near the reported resistance (don’t worry about being dead on, as there are many factors influencing the reading, including temperature and your multi-meter). A tolerance of up to about 200 either way should be fine.

2. Remain steady. Small fluctuations in the lesser digits are fine, but if you have a pick up where the reading is fluctuating more wildly, it’s a bad pick up.

If these two things look good, you’re looking at a good pick-up, so get installing and enjoy!

Love These Pickups!!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 17, 2020

Style: Traditional - Custom Shop 69Verified Purchase

Purchased this set of pickups to replace the original ones fitted to my 2007 Left-Handed American Standard Stratocaster. The originals were okay but I wanted something a bit different. What a difference these pickups make to the sound of the instrument, the improvement is huge in my opinion. I just absolutely love the sounds that I am now able to get - from classic 50s and 60s cleans to the overdriven sounds that are synonymous with the “Hendrix” era. Cannot fault the pickups or the seller. Super fast delivery as usual.

FAKE FAKE FAKE!!!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 5, 2020

Style: Traditional - Custom Shop 69Verified Purchase

THIS IS A FAKE!! These pickups are not from fender. Nothing about them is fender they are 100% knock offs! This is coming from me (guitarist of 17 years) and a technician at one of the biggest fender retailers in the uk who has worked on guitars for 20+ years. 100% fake. You should all ask for your money back.

This has also been reported to fender and trading standards.

these really are fantastic pickups. So bluesy and great sustain

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 27, 2015

Style: Traditional - Texas SpecialVerified Purchase

Had some concerns that they may be too harsh sounding as seems to be suggested by many people. Turns out I needn't have worried, these really are fantastic pickups. So bluesy and great sustain. I thought I couldn't better my other modified strats with USA & 57/62s pickups but these really are superb. Only the bridge pick up could be described as harsh but then if it's that you're looking for these will also fit the bill nicely. Buy them!
