Everything is bigger in Texas, from hats to belt buckles to cattle, and even guitar tone has a little bit more magnitude coming from the Lone Star state. Over the past decade, Mojotone has been honored to partner with legendary Texas guitar tech Rene Martinez in producing his signature Texas Strat® pickups, and now we have his blessing to take our shared pride and joy to the next level.

Introducing our Rene Martinez Quiet Coil Texas Strat® Pre-Wired Pickguard, combining our unrivaled Quiet Coil technology with Rene’s impeccable ear and demanding specifications. Here is that flood of Texas sound that you have been looking for, to get the house rockin' without any frustrating 60-cycle hum.

Mojotone Rene Martinez Quiet Coil Texas Strat® prewired solderless pickguards are completely prewired to perfection with no soldering required. Just drop in and play. Our exclusive 7% tolerance CTS pots, Switchcraft jack, Mojotone Dijon capacitor, and CRL 5-way switch compliment what we believe to be the best sounding, most touch-sensitive hum-canceling Strat pickups ever made. Carefully balanced in output from the neck, middle, to bridge positions, and completely hum-canceling in ALL positions!

**If you have any questions about the Strat Quiet Coil_™ Pickups, please check out our **Mojotone Quiet Coil Strat Pickups FAQ._

Our approach was very simple, to make a hum-cancelling Strat pickup that looks and sounds like a real single coil with minimal parts and adhering to actual vintage single coil attributes. We've matched the resonant peak frequency, and inductance of Rene’s Texas Strat® single coils, so they sit right in the frequency response and feel without having to compensate at all.

No batteries, stacked coils, or anything else associated with other hum-canceling pickups were used in our design. The result is simply the most pure and authentic Strat tone possible, with absolutely no loss of true single coil tone. They are sonically clear and warm, with every bit of single coil sparkle and chime, just like our original Texas Strat® pickups.

NOTE: With all Mojotone Quiet Coil™ pickups, you never have to worry about string spacing and radius issues, or the magnets pulling the strings out of tune, and you can bend the strings heavily without ever losing focus or sustain. All of this while achieving perfect single coil Strat tone and absolutely no hum!

Blender Control Functions: Unlike standard wiring, Blender wiring adds the option for all 3 pickups to be on at once and the ability to combine the neck and bridge pickups as much as you want.

Master Volume: Top Knob
Master Tone: Middle Knob
Blender Control: Bottom Knob

Blender knob on 10
Position 1: Bridge
Position 2: Bridge and Middle
Position 3: Middle

Standard Mod Control Functions: Standard strat wiring with no tone control for the middle pickup only. This reduces the load on positions 2 and 4 to only one tone pot, giving you a more clear and open tone when combining the neck/middle or bridge middle pickups. AKA the “EJ Mod”.

Note:

Guitars made overseas may require you to enlarge the holes for the larger US spec pots to fit. You will also need to change the metric knobs to inch sized 24-knurl push-on knobs and the switch tip. See related items. If you have a non-Fender brand strat or overseas made strat, please verify the fit before purchasing.
