Pros & Cons
Pros
These sound much better than the stock squier pickups. Make you squire sound like fender every time.
Used these to swap out my ceramics from a mim strat. Handles distortion very well.
A good, affordable option. Had to resize the pickgard, other than that, no problem. Awesome for the price. Still worth it for the other 2. Very nice improvement.
A nice classic chimey strat sound but focussed, warm and clean. Very balanced tone. Glassy with plenty of chime and sparkle.
They have a nice pull complex harmonics sound. Nice difference in the sound and the price is excellent.
Cons
The guitar sounds good in the 2nd or 4th position but sounds cheap and lacking in the bridge only or neck only. Of the three only two worked.
Highlights
Quality
Two words to describe my sentiment great product
Good quality good results in this application
Some folks think that you have to spend a lot of to get quality pups but i would suggest that you let your ears decide and not your wallet
Use a multimeter to find the pickup with the highest resistance thats the bridge
Price
Nice difference in the sound and the price is excellent
Just make sure not to tell everyone because soon these will cost 190 per set like texas specials
Competitiveness
I bought these after buying a set for my monoprice tele and bought a pair of the alnico v humbuckers for my flying v kit guitar
These sound much better than the stock squier pickups

Speaking of i noticed that when you switch to split position 24 the difference isn’t that much
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Normally you’d expect the output to be 50 in the split positions but is feels more like 75 output when split
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The advertised resistance was on the north side of 5
