Fender Noiseless Gen4 StratocasterSet

I replaced a set of Gen 3s where the middle pickup had gone intermittent. As far as I could tell because of a manufacturing flaw. The construction of all the Fender noiseless pickups is relatively complicated and delicate. There is lot jammed under the covers and more to go wrong than a conventional single coil. They sound OK and do cancel hum.

I bought these for higher gain purposes, which they handle much better than vintage style singles, tone is very decent, but i'd say clarity is a little compromised, compared to similarly expensive vintage singles. They are o.k. for my purposes.
Probably the best of both worlds.

These pickups replaced a set of Fender SCN pickups in one of my stratocasters. Compared to the SCN pickups they are worlds more clear with a cut to the high frequency end. They can also be driven with a rounded distortion using a Tube Driver,etc. The pickups also are very quiet in terms of humming through various amplifiers or Line 6 Helix + FRFR amp. Goes down as a good buy.

finally after something like 70 years, Fender managed to make high quality pickups with the typical stratocaster sound, but without any buzz. Great for every style.

They were a massive upgrade for my MiM Strat. Cleans sound gorgeous, and distortions sound great too. Just be mindful that, even though they're called "Noiseless", it won't eliminate all of your distortion hum - we're still talking single coils, after all. But it's a great improvement for the Stratocaster lovers.
