Fender Custom Shop Texas Special Tele Pickups...a little hotter and little gnarlier...

Fender states "Razor-sharp attack and higher output make the Fender Custom Shop Texas Special Tele pickups essential equipment for the well-equipped Tele owner! Born in the Custom Shop and used on many custom-made Teles, they feature height-staggered Alnico 5 magnets mounted into a fiber bobbin wrapped with enamel-coated magnet wire. The bridge pickup features a copper-plated steel bottom plate for increased output, presence and midrange. The neck pickup utilizes a nickel silver cover for clear, warm tone with increased output." - Yeah!!!!
