TC5&TM5- Single Coil Vintage Guitar Pickups

1- Product I received looks different than listing photo. Both P/U's marked with the logo of a brand not listed in the listing.2- Neck P/U measures higher than bridge. 7.8/7.4. Just found that weird.3- Bridge P/U had a bad coil termination on bobbin. Presented with varied measurements and strange, empty, low-fi output. Removed one winding of coil wire and re-flowed solder connection to fix. All good.4- All hardware was present. Good, sturdy hardware for springs.5- Detailed, reactive, very airy sound. Almost like you turned the presence knob up on the amp. I like them.

I installed the bridge pickup in a Strat/Tele hybrid. Sounds very good on its own and blends nicely with the Strat single coils.I have not yet used the neck pickup. I have no doubt it will sound very good too when Installed. There are so many pickups on the market it is hard to distinguish differences. These are midrange in price and to my ears they sound as good as any high end brand name.

Just installed these and unfortunately I am past the return window. The neck pickup is defective. Output is very low. When switching between pickups there is a huge volume difference between the bridge and the neck pickups.

For years I turned to fender for replacement pickups for my project guitars but lately I've been experimenting with some less expensive alternatives. These were a great success as far as I'm concerned. I put them in a low dollar tele project and turned it into a tone machine. The neck pickup sounds full and rich with great overtones and no muddy tone, the bridge has snap and bite and the middle position is chimney very tele like. I'm always looking for pickups that have that magic that inspires me to play every lick I know just to see how great they sound, these have it. They are not as "magical as a set of fender custom shop pu's but for $39 bucks they come close.

Great little upgrade for a project fauxcaster. Quality is solid and they sound very nice and telecaster-ish.

I bought these to replace the pickups that came in a tele kit.The difference in sound was startling. For the cost I felt this was a good value.These work real well and sound great.

Installed these in a beginners guitar and honestly you couldn't tell they were an off brand pickup. I wax potted the pickups and copper foil shielded the pickup and control cavities and the guitar was super quite when it came to 60 cycle hum. Nice choice for this guitar.

Running around looking for screws for these two pickups. Not a major thing. Just one more added nuisance on top of all the other little details involved in building a guitar.
