When we decided to go for the vintage Tele® sound, we knew we had to do
more than just copy a forty-year-old design. We wanted pickups that
captured the best elements of our favorite Broadcaster® and Telecaster®
sounds — and then some. The Twang King pickups have unequalled response
to pick attack: light playing produces a soft, quiet tone and hard
picking creates a harder, louder, and more dynamic sound than any
comparable single-coil. We accomplished this with a combination of
controlled-tension coil-winding, special wire, and hand-calibrated
magnets. The neck pickup comes with a chrome cover, and the bridge model
has a ferrous base plate. Both pickups are wax-potted twice for
squeal-free performance.
