.... damit ging es Tonal auf jeden Fall ein Level höher :-) ... hörbar ausgewogener als die originalen New Player Pickups der Player Serie Stratocaster, welche etwas "flach" im Vergleich zu diesen Fat 50th klingen.... also ein Upgrade das Laune macht. Der Einbau ging recht einfach, wenn man die üblichen Dinge beachtet und mit dem Lötkolben vertraut ist.

With this pickup set I finally found the sound I’ve been searching for the last four years. I’m bit of a Fender purist and have tried Texas Specials, Vintage Noiseless and Highway 1-pickups prior to these Fat 50s. My issues have been in the upper frequenzies where Texas Specials are a bit too edgy and aggressive, Vintage Noiseless too muddy and Highway One (which of course only available second hand) lacks the ”body” - sounding thin without character, Fat 50s is an almost perfect blend with fullbodied rich sound, well balanced highs and a low end with plenty of punch. Not as snappy and aggressive in attack as Texas Specials which was my main issue, my ears litterarly hurt when playing Texas Special at times. My almost forgotten Strat became my favourite Strat overnight after installing Fat 50s.

UPDATED 4/6/15: I've installed/uninstalled these into my G&L strat style guitar a couple of times. The first time I just wasn't used to not having a RWRP middle pickup. I didn't think I'd mind the HUM in every position... but I did and out they came within a couple of day's. Maybe 6 months later, I put them back in while I was doing some other upgrades. My main focus with my guitar is that although it sounded pretty dang good overall, it just never quite sounded like what I thought a strat should sound like. The stock pickups were just over 7 ohms and I found out the stock saddles and trem block were made out of zink (pot metal to me). I determined to make my guitar sound like a strat so I took the guitar apart, painted the inside of the cavity with shielding paint, installed vintage style saddles, steel trem block, vintage RAW trem springs, blocked the 2 point trem with a thin piece of mahogany, wired in the CS 69's and it was a huge difference. Shortly after I wired in a "Kinman" style treble bleed... and THAT brought everything together. My guitar NOW sounds as good as any strat I've ever heard. Before trying ANY new pickups, maybe try wiring in the Kinman treble bleed. It might get you where you want to go without changing pickups. That said, I'm very satisfied with the Fender CS 69's and all of the upgrades that I've done. Together, my guitar has a VERY vintage tone with GREAT note complexity. The only other upgrade I plan on doing is the Ilitch silent backplate system to remove most of the remaining 60 cycle hum. Do yourself a favor and try the Thomastik-Infeld "Blues Sliders" as well. BEST strings I've ever used!!!

I bought these from here and installed them into a very cheap B stock guitar I bought online. The guitar was very flawed up but had a decent looking finish. It features a very cheap alder body, cheap bridge, nut and tuners, and terribad fret job on a very poor quality maple/rosewood neck that would make the most adept luthier fret. I completely re-did the frets and put some heavy 58-12 strings on the guitar with these pickups. I also tried them with Ernie Ball 10's and they sound amazing, so you don't need to use "barb wire" strings and absurdly high action, but it does improve the tone. And it's the SRV tone we're all after, right?Getting to the point: these are the best pickups I have ever heard. I have 57-62 which I love. I have almost every major guitar ever made. Alnico 3 and 5's galore. 54's, 69's, Custom shop, Ceramics, crunch, p90's -- you name it. These are the best.My experience was extremely fast shipping, great customer service and a wonderful product that I love so much. Total price for my guitar was right around $220 bucks and it easily beats my $2000 dollar strat. I'm not the bright bulb in the world so if *I* can do this, *YOU* can too.I will add this: I've been playing guitar for 33 years. Putting it mildly, I have never been impressed with Tex Mex pickups but I LOVE these Texas Specials. I never thought anything would outshine my 57/62's but these do. I can't recommend these pickups enough.
