Full Description
View Full DescriptionStunning tones
This American Original is equipped with a pair of Pure Vintage ’64 Telecaster pickups that deliver warm, vintage-style tones that are reminiscent of the ‘60s. These powerfully vintage pickups were designed and constructed to be as period-correct as possible from the enamel-coated coil wire to the cloth-covered output wires, fibre bobbins and alnico 5 magnets.
Alongside this, they also provide your tone with an enhanced focus and dynamics thanks to the pickup situated at the bridge. In addition, the staggered pole-pieces balance volume and output over string. Players are certain to benefit from these vintage-accurate pickups which offer a strong Tele twang that's crystal clear and versatile enough to deliver sweet sounds that made the 60s decade so iconic.
