Renowned pickup guru Tim Shaw slightly over-wound these TELECASTER ® pickups to produce a meaty tone that still adheres to the vintage style. The pickups in this set have been specifically crafted for each position and carefully engineered for a premium tone that modern players will love. They are calibrated to provide the best possible performance both solo and in tandem. The bridge pickup uses a copper baseplate for traditional Tele® tone, along with flush-mount Alnico 5 magnets and Formvar wire; the neck pickup uses the same high quality Alnico 5 magnets but is fitted with plain magnet wire. Alnico 5 magnets have a tighter, more focused tone than the Alnico 3 counterparts used in early Fender pickups, and their fast, bright attack is perfect for players who shape their tone with pedal.
