Description

The Fender Tex-Mex Hot Telecaster Pickup Set takes the classic snap and sparkle of traditional Tex-Mex Tele pickups and turns up the heat. Overwound coils and Alnico 5 magnets deliver higher output, punchier mids and a touch more growl, while still keeping that unmistakable Telecaster clarity and bite that cuts through any mix.

Whether you are chasing gritty country, crunchy indie rhythms or bluesy overdrive, these pickups are voiced to push your amp that bit harder without sacrificing definition. They drop into any standard Tele-style guitar and give you a hotter, more expressive take on the familiar Tele sound, ideal for players who want extra attitude while staying firmly in single-coil territory.

Hot-Rodded Tex-Mex Tone

Building on the much-loved Tex-Mex recipe, this Hot Tele set is wound for more output and a stronger midrange presence. That means fatter chords, more authority on single notes and a more confident voice when you dig in, all while retaining the open, articulate character that makes Tex-Mex pickups so popular.

Alnico 5 Punch and Dynamics

Alnico 5 magnets provide a focused, dynamic response with tight lows, clear highs and a lively attack. The result is a pickup set that reacts instantly to your picking hand, cleaning up beautifully when you play lightly and roaring into life when you hit the strings harder.

Vintage-Style String Balance

Flush-mount polepieces help create a natural blend between the strings, echoing the rich, even response of early Telecaster pickups. This gives you smooth chord balance and consistent note volume across the neck, ideal for both rhythm work and intricate lead lines.

Stage-Ready Construction

With vinyl-covered lead wire, plastic bobbins and polysol-coated magnet wire, these pickups are built for reliable performance. They are designed to deliver hot, characterful Tele tone night after night, and come ready to be wired straight into your favourite Tele-style guitar.
