1. What are TexMex pickups? How are they different from AlNiCo pickups which are in American standard strat?
2. What is basic difference between TexMex and Samarium Cobalt pickups? Are samarium cobalt really noiseless? Do TexMex produce noise?
3. What is difference between diamondback and DH-1 humbucking pickups?

I don't know the difference between the humbuckers but I can tell you the samarium cobalt pickups are totally noiseless. The tex mex have the typical hum associated with Strats. It's a toss up though as some prefer a more vintage Strat sound that can be difficult to achieve with a noiseless pickup. I'd look at it this way:

If you want a traditional, vintage, somewhat buzzy, plucky & snappy Strat sound with the added punch of a humbucker get the HSS.

If you want a more modern, noiseless, fatter and warmer, less snappy Strat sound with the added punch of a humbucker get the AM DLX HSS.
