FenderShawBucker 2 - Humbucking Electric Guitar Pickup - Zebra

Great pickup. In my tele plus bridge sounds great!

Amazon offered a 3-payment option for this that I can’t refuse.Was just disappointed that the actual product is a zebra vs the full cream color on the ad’s picture. Hence the 4-stars.

I love the looks of zebra pickups. Installed these myself. Look great, sound even better.

There's a clarity to this humbucker but it doesn't lose that growl. I have a Gibson ES-339 with '57s which I love, but they sound muddy compared to this one. I replaced the humbucker in my 2018 American Performer Strat HSS (double-tap humbucker...awful...) with this one & it's the best decision I could make.Two caveats:1. This is NOT the cream color as it's advertised as. It's the 'zebra' color. I don't care who claims to sell you a Fender humbucker with two cream colored pickup hemispheres - you're getting the zebra. This pickup doesn't look good on ANY guitar. It's ugly, likely the reason it's not advertised as the zebra. That said, it sounds so good, you'll forgive them.2. The wiring diagrams online for 'shawbucker' humbuckers? They don't apply to this one. Fender like to mix up their wiring schemas or mis-label them. Not sure if it's on purpose or what, but if you find a diagram that claims to be the wiring for this humbucker, it's likely incorrect. It doesn't come with any worthwhile diagram, but the packaging is good enough.It was worth it, in my opinion it's Fender's best pickup ever - but a very frustrating product to get correct schemas for. Especially if you have coil splitting, you could be in for a long, tedious, frustrating task.

Easy install into my 2021 MIM Fender SSS. Turned my thin-sounding overdrive sound into full-sounding distortion. Bright and clear with prominent mids and lows.

I bought this to replace the standard humbucker in my Squier strat.This is apparently the humbucker that comes in the Fender elite range, and it does not disappoint!Bearing in mind what I've done is a massive upgrade to the original this gives crystal clear tone, nice and bright.Makes my £200 guitar sound brilliant
