FenderEric Johnson Stratocaster Pickups, Set of 3

These pickups have a lot more output than the ones that came with my Stratocaster. The originals were labeled "Noiseless". Not sure if they were the actual Noiseless pickups.It was a night and day difference. The guitar is still quiet - as in no hum or buzz. Well worth the upgrade.

The media could not be loaded. They definitely have more output. I roll off the tone to get a little bit of a darker sound, but the chime is there when you need it. And they definitely keep the Strat tone alive. I did notice that they were just a tad dirty on the clean side at times which I don’t mind.

I had an American standard with Stevie Ray Vaughan pick ups, and really didn’t like the bridge pick up. I switch that out with the David Gilmour pick up, and still not happy with the town. So I figured maybe I just don’t like Strat, therefore ordered these as a last ditch hail Mary. Well, touchdown! These are the real deal, they will change your guitar sound into what I consider the Strat sound (I was looking for). I am so happy as I love the look and feel of my guitar, but hates the tone. These pick ups really transformed what I have into something now maybe my favorite guitar.What I love about the tone is no tinny, thin sound, but full bodied and thick, with a very nice hi range and amazing range of control via tone knobs So you can dial in all kinds of sounds on the fly. I set up my guitar to have tone control on knobs on the bridge and neck only. Middle is open

My partscaster roared to life with these babies. I was really torn between Texas Specials and Fat Fifties. From the tests and reviews, I found these to come somewhere in between those two. When I finished my build, that statement turned out to be correct in person. Not as "dark" as the Specials (although I love those two), and a little hotter in the bridge than the 50's. Definitely recommended. I made the right choice. Also, I shielded the pickup cavity really well (copper in the cavity, solid aluminum sheet under the pickguard) and wrapped the pickup wires (twisted them) and with that, they are incredibly quiet in regards to humming. Very surprised. My other guitar has active pickups, and I would never ever get actives again after seeing how quiet this build turned out.

We bought these for our son for Christmas, he has had them put on his 2014 Fender American standard channel bound stratocaster. He tells me the pickups are low output, clean, crystal clear in tone. They are bright sounding and perfectly balanced from string to string. His first impression is that they are perfect for a clean blues/jazztype tone. He also says he doesn't understand why these pickups aren't more popular, he feels the sound is phenomenal. I was a little nervous and upset that the case the pickups came in was cracked and broken, but my son says there is no damage at all to the pickups. They work beautifully.

I put these in my 1996 MIM Strat and it totally changed it for the better. I get better volume, more of a quacky strat sound now. I did buy a new pickguard, CTS pots, Fender 5 way switch, .1 uF PIO tone cap and push back wire so I could wire up a new pickguard for drop in ease. These brought my old strat back to life.

Sounds as good as my 74 Strat. A bit dirty but still sounds great. They've got beef!

I had some very old SRV custom shop pickups in my strat already, but unfortunately, although they still sounded amazing, I could not crank the volume past 8 or so without major squealing as they had become hydrophonic. So I splurged and replaced them with these Eric Johnson p/u's, thinking I may even get a better sound. That was not the case, and they are not nearly as nice sounding as my old ones, and they are much noisier. I was really hoping for a similar tone to what I already had, but sadly that is not the case. The cleans aren't as clear and bright, and the distortion doesn't have that twangy bite I was used to. Live and learn is all I can say.

These by far are the best pickups I have. I have these installed in my player strat and love them. I have even bought a second set for my American standard. The quality of them is superb very well made. The sound is amazing I didn't buy these to sound like Eric Johnson that would be Impossible. I bought them because the tone you can get from them. They are pricey compared to other pickups but for me well worth. You can't go wrong with them.

I replaced my Fender vintage 59 pickups in my 50s original Stratocaster for these. Compared to the 59's its a day and night difference! the 59s are much brighter, even with the original 0.1 mfd capacitor in it. I made a new loaded pickguard as to preserve the original but this time with a full aluminium shield and a pre-wired harness with the Luxe 0.1 mfd 56-58 capacitor.I find the sound now much thicker and more sensitive to picking dynamics, neck pu is fuller and warmer too.I play Jazz music and I was looking for something fuller, warmer and more dynamic. Even though a Strat is not an instrument of choice for Jazz and I do prefer my telecaster for it, these are really dam good and I am very happy with it!All 5 positions are usable and for some blues and rock sounds amazing too!** 5 months later and my Strat with these pickups in have become my main axe. These pickups are amazing. I now play Jazz with a strat haha even my jazz friends with their archtops are impressed with the sound and dynamic of these pickups. Great for clean tones and slightly overdriven tones for blues.

Traces de saleté sur les caches micros, inscription manquante sur un des 3 micros. Dans le doute je renvoie, mes excuses si c'est l'usine Fender qui a plané.EDIT: je viens de les commander ailleurs, pareil (sauf le prix, plus cher) ! C'est donc Fender qui vend des micros avec de la saleté dessus, dans des paquets non scellés... Rien a reprocher à amazon

Estaba dudando de la elección de unas pastillas fender adecuadas a mi gusto y desde luego, no me he equivocado. Son increibles, me encanta su sonido, vienen con un esquema o diagrama de montaje moderno con un condensador orange drop, asi que he recableado asi toda la guitarra y increíble resultado. Muy contento con la compra.
