Great sounding pups
I bought set of these for my mex tele. They are an excellent upgrade for ur Strat or any 3 single coil guitar. They sound a lot like Texas specials . They come in a lot of fender strats and even teles. The roadwork Strat I had used these. Very good highs and mids, good bottom end also. Pickups are very subjective, we all have our favorites . Some like these, some don’t. You can’t go wrong with Tex mex pups.
The mex standard pickups are ok, too muddy for my liking, these are a significant upgrade in quality. The price is good also.

Love it!
I'm not a super expert when it comes to strat sounds but I own and I have played a few and I have to say I love the sound of this set. I tend to prefer thicker/warmer strat type of sound and this set delivers exactly the sound I prefer, very bluesy and nice for many other things too. Thomann offered a great price for this set at the time I bought it.

Good alternative for Texas Specials
If you don't have the money for Texas Specials, but you want that kind of bluesy sound, this is a good choice for you. Lower output, thus a bit cleaner, but enough power to play blues. Cheap, delivers the sound, what else do you need?

Sounds better than the demo
Installed on a second hand Harley Benton Strat.
First time I heard the pickups after the installation I was baffled. I could not wished for a better clean sound.
These are a bitt "hotter" sounding pickups as standard Fender pickups, but overall can produce good clean tones and great classic rock tone.

Best inexpensive pickups
I tried different pickups in different guitars to find my desired sound. I know there any many pickup options to suit everyone needs and pockets. I am happy to have this pickups in my Stratocaster giving a more mellow and punchy sound. It has a good sound although their produce some hiss but is normal in the majority of single soils.

These pups really put the twang into my project Squier. Tested with others as an experiment, but desided to take a shot with tex mex set since I love the sound of my signature SRV. Not even close. They are more harsh, bitey, and trebley in comparison, actually quite a tele-type of sound. Love em. Worth every Euro, but if you are looking for SRV sound, go for Texas. Tex Mex is a feast of it's own, you know - south of the border.

Great tones
I used to have this set in my 2008. Fender Roadworn 60's Strat, now I bought this for my custom built, and with flattening the pole pieces, it works wonders. The sound is clear, pickups are a bit overwound, it gives me that rock tone i needed, I didn't want a noiseless pickup, these are the true Strat sound with a little bit of extra grit and they are dirt cheap, best bang for your buck.

Strat Project
Used them well, but ultimately upgraded from these to Jimmy's younger brothers pickups.
Great bang for your buck, when it comes to upgrading from stock pickups
