Both have that bit of sizzle to them where the biggest differences are the Tex Mexs are much weaker and much treblier than TSs.

My two strats have these pickups. I find the TEX Mex's to be More top end trebley, I reckon they are louder also. And the Texas specials i find more sensitive to your playing dynamics more mid and bottom end they are a better sounding pickup for finesse playing. I think they are a tad quieter that the Tex Mex. They are both hot as pick ups and are just great blues soloing pickups. Depends on the music you play. Harder music would lend itself to Tex Mex. And for a wider tonal range of playing the Texas Specials.
