A Miracle of a tele pickup.
Forty years tele owners have fought between a vintage spec pickup with it's Nashville Twang and percussive snap, and a hotter over-wound pickup that can rock, but loses the magic tele tone.
The Alnico Fatbody uses oversized 6.5mm Alnico V rods and classic Plain Enamel 42 gauge wire to deliver the best of both worlds.
Fat, Juicy, Snappy and POWERFUL. As much power and balls as a hot over-wound 12K tele pickup, yet wound to only 7K to deliver the shimmery high end and string snap that tele players love.
This is a beautifully made pickup- using vintage fiber bobbins, cloth leads, carefully potted in a parrafin/beeswax mixture, and wrapped in classic black cord to complete the package.
Match it with the calibrated neck pickup and you've got a hell of a tele on your hands.
