Perfect '54 era correct
Jiloo_music 05.02.2015
Fender build is perfect, including original wires;
These '54 Custom Shop Pick Ups are delivering, in a Fender Japan Strat '54 Reissue with Ash body and Maple fretboard, the exact original tone, bright and sparkling.
This is what I was looking for, so very satisfied.

great value
Denis1969 01.05.2015
Bought these for a MIM standard strat and love them. Not easy for me to describe the tone, but let's say they are clear and twangy. Exclellent clean tone, just like strat should sound.
I had to widen the mounting holes in order to fit the screws, but it is not a big deal really.
All in all, I'm very satisfied.

Sweet Singlecoil set
Thomas4693 02.02.2015
Couldn't resist getting it when it was available as a special offer.

I tested this set in my Fender American Highway One Strat. The pickups have less output than the original set, that I rated as really good.

I was really impressed with the tone that I got clean - warm and chimey. I was instantly reminded of the Shadows. The distorted tone is also very good, although you need to turn up the gain quite a bit. You might need an overdrive panel to really drive your amp - depends on your model.

Note that the middle pickup is not a reverse wound / reverse polarity type - you do not get the "hum bucking" effect in the 2 and 4 positions of the 5 way switch.

Also, with the modern "blang" G string, the vintage staggering makes it louder than the rest of the strings, so you need to correct that if it disturbs you.

Very nice sounding
Anonymous 21.10.2015
I bought these for a strat I was building. Thomann had them for sale much cheaper than elsewhere.
The screw holes are too small, but you can just drill them out to be bigger so it's not a problem. Very happy with them, although make sure you put the bridge one in the bridge, and not in the neck like I did first before reading the instructions.

Fender Custom 54 Strat PU Set
Anonymous 29.03.2015
i bought these for my 87 japanese squier strat a great guitar well made but the original ceramic pickups where ok but nothing special.
i installed the 54,s and the guitar has come to life it just has that strat tone now and i really like the bridge tone.
ive had many strat copies and alot of them to my ear dont have the sound you hear on recordings of strats clapton,SRV knopfler etc.
these pickups have it and i need look no further than my old squier now to find it.
I recorded them after installation and im very impressed with the tones available
all in all very good pickups for an authentic strat tone.

Does exactly what is say on the box!
Eric9579 22.09.2015
Long story short I got these as an upgrade for a cheap strat copy and I could not be happier. It has all the bite, twang and brightness of an old Strat and I would not part with it for anything.

I really do love these pick ups. You'll be amazed at how your guitar sounds and the way it accentuates your playing technique. These are low output so turn your tube amp way up and hear that sweet natural distortion.

One minor issue the holes in the base plates needed to be re-drilled.
