Description
Fender’s Custom Shop Texas Special set takes the classic Telecaster single-coil formula and turns up the heat. This is a matched neck/bridge pair engineered for players who want their Tele to bite back—more output on tap, a pushed midrange, and a presence peak that cuts through a band mix without turning brittle.
- Set of 2 pickups: neck and bridge, purpose-wound for Telecaster
- Increased output compared to vintage-spec Tele pickups
- Boosted midrange and presence for a more aggressive, blues/rock-ready voice
- Nickel/silver cover on the neck pickup for genuine Custom Shop character
The neck pickup’s nickel/silver cover isn’t just cosmetic—it’s part of what gives this set its signature clarity. Instead of a muddy, dark neck tone, you get warmth with definition, so chords stay articulate and single notes still sing. Paired with the hotter bridge unit, the set delivers that unmistakable Texas snap: twangy enough for country runs, but with enough push to handle overdriven blues and rock leads.
If your Telecaster has always felt a little too polite, this Custom Shop set is built to fix that—swapping in real output and midrange muscle while keeping the Tele’s core identity intact.
