### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Buen sonido

Cambio por una que murió. Suenan muy bien. Buen reemplazo a buen precio.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Classic Fender Sound
*by  on Reviewed in the United States 7 June 2025*

I’m pleasantly surprised by the sound of these pickups. I was looking for a mellower tone for my Tele but still retaining that Fender Tone. For being under $100 these hit the mark. Great clean tones and crunchy overdrives. Would recommend!
