I'm looking at a loaded pick guard with "Texas Special" pickups and the seller says that not all Texas Specials come with cloth covered wire. His, of course, are plastic covered.
Anyone confirm this ?
Thanks

Every set I've ever seen has had cloth insulation.

me too.
Never seen one without cloth wire, also look for the color dots on the back of the pups I think blue was neck and red was bridge also should have fender custom shop silver stickers on the back of them.
I've seen them w/o stickers but they're always cloth covered (?)
What about the CIJ models that claim to come stock with 'Texas Specials'?

My buddy up in Duluth has a 95 cij 62 reissue he took his apart and they have cloth wire
All Texas Specials have cloth wires.
The Tex Mex have plastic
Seller is mistaken
Good. Now I don't have to take mine apart to see.!! (Unless, I'm him and already did it....Originally Posted by majwild1

As I thought, he looked a little closer and they are cloth covered.
so it all makes sense now
Factory installed Texas Specials don't have coloured dots or custom shop stickers on them-
This is what is under the hood on my Mark Knopfler sig Strat.
Edit- well it would be if the photos hadn't mysteriously disappeared !
