Fender American Custom Shop Texas Special Stratocaster Pickup Set (Set of 3)

Hot Texas Strat Tone with Extra Bite and Output

The Fender Custom Shop Texas Special Stratocaster Pickup Set is designed for players who want classic Strat clarity with more push and midrange presence. These overwound single-coils use Alnico 5 magnets and enamel-coated wire to deliver tight lows, sparkling highs, and a pronounced midrange that cuts through driven tones and band mixes.

The increased output gives you more responsiveness under gain while still retaining the dynamic feel Strat players expect. Clean tones stay articulate, while overdriven sounds gain extra edge and bite without losing definition.

A reverse-wound middle pickup helps reduce hum in combined positions, making it more practical for live use. Period-correct construction, including fibre bobbins and cloth wiring, keeps the feel and response consistent with traditional designs.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think this is an ideal upgrade for players chasing a hotter, more aggressive Strat voice without sacrificing clarity and dynamics.
