Full Description

Our first Alnico 2 Tele set offers blues and jazz players warm, rich trebles and superb sustain, whilst still maintaining enough tele-twang on the bridge pickup to keep up with country licks.

The Alnico rod pole pieces on the bridge pickup incorporate Tonerider's modified stagger, with a higher third and fourth string polepieces to optimise string-string balance.

The neck pickup features our in-house Nickel-Silver cover for tonal transparency, and we include wood screws for direct mounting to the body, and two #4/40 pan head screws for use when mounting the pickup to a pickguard.

Each pickup is fully wax potted to reduce any microphonic feedback, and comes supplied with screws, latex height adjustment tubing and an installation guide.

Boutique quality

I removed a lollar 52 neck pickup and creamery 51 bridge pickup and put these in instead. Old pickups were great but I needed money so thought I'd downgrade. To my surprise, these pickups sound 95% of the way there. They don't even sound worse, just different. Don't buy hand wound boutique pickups unless you're really tone obsessed, get these and you're golden

pleasantly surprised

I am pleasantly surprised with sweetness, clarity and dynamics. Nicely works with overdrive pedals. I wonder if Alnico 2 Blues for Strat has the same tonality and would make a great Tele and Strat pair. Will figure out soon. :)

These pickups are awesome. They make my inexpensive Fender Squire Affinity sound like a more expensive Fender Telecaster. More clarity and a wider variety of tones with these pups. 🙂

Alnico 2 Blues

Recently replaced the standard pickups supplied in my Squire Custom Telecaster as I love the guitar but not the pups, and these Alnico 2 Blues have brought this guitar to life, amazing response and tone, I just love them!
