FenderGeneration 4 Noiseless Telecaster Single-Coil Pickups - Set of 2

I've been playing for over 30 years. I own several telecasters and strats and have used quite a few 'noiseless' pickup. For comparison, I've used active systems (EMG), Fender SCNs, DiMarzio Area's and some of the smaller pickup builders. I like my telecaster to sound like a tele but with a little more output than a true vintage pickup. These pickups nail the tone and there is ZERO hum. The take overdrive really well, they have spank and sparkle like a tele should. I did have to enlarge the hole between the bridge pickup and control cavity, just a tiny bit off the bridge pickup cavity side.The pickups are well made, quite tall compared to other stacked noiseless. Nice thick lead wires, twisted from the factory.Overall, a fantastic value considering the price and tone!

You get what you paid for... I don't say that about much Fender stuff too :)Very nicely manufactured pickups. Installed fine and sounded great!My only complaint is with packaging... the clear box top lid sits right on the top of the silver capsule (neck) pickup and tends to mark up pickup cover during shipping, leaving scratched/abrasions on the silver capsule and can not be polished out. A simple plastic sheet cover over the pickup capsule should help immensely.

I installed these in my '05 Fender FSR Telly MiM, and they got perfectly.Wiring was dead simple, and the result is a more defined classic telecaster sound. Granted, a buzz/hum is still present, but this is undoubtedly a grounding issue as it was more apparent with the old pickups.Very pleased with this product. Although the wiring diagram included could be more detailed.8/10, get it!

Love them! Went from the Gen 1’s from 20+ yrs ago to these and I am well pleased.

I have a Vintage '52 Tele. I bought these hoping to improve on the hum situation. They do not disappoint in sound quality or hum reduction, but both pickups are taller than the originals, and the neck pickup is too tall for the cavity in my guitar, so it touches the strings when fretted above the 7th fret. I would need to mill about 5mm out of the neck pickup pocket to make it fit, and probably also replace the pickguard. I am not willing to make irreversible mods to this guitar to swap pickups. The description should note that these don't fit every Tele without cutting wood.

Excellent sounding pickups. I wired them to a 4way switch in my Tele and they sound great. The only problem with them was that one of the mounting screws the head was not formed and so could not be used fortunately I had a replacement screw on hand.

One day after installing in new telecaster build, the bridge pickup failed. Tried to reach Fender for warranty. They never answered the phone call. Put on hold for an excessive amount of time. Seller was very slow in responding and offered no assistance.

Modded a Tele Pro 2 with these so make it noiseless (the more expensive Ultra Tele line comes stock with these Noiseless Pups). These are truly noiseless, even with fuzz and OD pedals engaged. In a live band mix, the tone difference is indistinguishable from the V Mod 2 pickups the Pro 2 comes stock with. Recommended.
