The sound I like best.

HelgeSa 10.08.2021

Sounds just the way I like my Tele. Bridge is a bit hotter than the standard, but sounds like a tele should, perfect blend between bass and treble. Not too dark, not too weak, and perfect bite for modern rock and country sound. Neck is clearer (more treble) than standard, but is also perfect for my taste. Powerful and clear. I also use them in 3 pickup teles, together with strat texas special midt pickup, and that combination is OK, I installed a ekstra volume pot on the middle pickup, and in that way I can blend in the midt pickup to my taste. Maybe a lower output middle pickup is better if you do not have the extra volume pot.

My tele is re-born!

Blue Swede 22.03.2021

I have a MiM tele since about 16 or 17 years. I've switched pickups several times, and finally had a bridge pickup that worked quite well while I was never quite happy with the neck one. The Twisted Tele set fixed it all. The bridge pickup is everything you'd like about a classic tele without being too shrill in the top end. And it's LOUD. The neck pickup finally has some clarity and note definition (unlike the more muddy vintage one I had before) - even when played clean. The neck pickup sounds more like one from a strat and that is perfect for me. Not the cheapest upgrade set available, but considering it's CS it's pretty reasonable. Money very well spent IMO. Me and my tele are home.

When you buy Fender Custom Shop Handwound pickups (set), you never are going to be deseived. Good materials components for a super sound with the Tele Twang sound with the bridge pickup en smoother sound with the neck pickup. Outstanding Quality like Always from the Fender Custom Shop. Go for it guitar players !!.

Great quality and sound

AnotherDaniel 18.12.2025

Very simple to install for my 4-way setup, due to the neck pickup cap already coming with its own ground wire.
The pair sounds great, I love the neck pickup especially - can’t compare with other PUs unfortunately as these went into a Partscaster build, but no regrets here.
