Pickups For Telecaster® Guitars

Two Telecaster Sets that look as good as they sound!
Tonerider telecaster pickups use two of the best-sounding vintage winding patterns combined with our own reproduction parts to deliver amazing tonal clarity and response. Used by leading custom guitar makers, these pickups are now available from dealers worldwide. All our telecaster pickups are RWRP so when using a Tonerider neck and bridge set you can be sure of hum-free operation in the middle position of your three-way switch.

• High-Grade Alnico III and V Polepieces
• Our own Tonerider nickel-silver covers in gold and nickel plating - no more dull neck tone!
• Calibrated winding for even volume balance across all three standard positions.
• Laser-cut, hand-bevelled flatwork.
• USA-made vintage hook-up wire for easy installation.
• Latex tubing and nickel-plated screws are included with every pickup.
• Tradition string wound bridge with copper-plated steel baseplate
• All coils scatterwound on our 999-step CNC winding machines.
• All coils wax-potted to avoid feedback at high-gain settings.
• All sets are RWRP - offering noiseless operation in the "mid" position.
• Note: All our telecaster pickups are available as sets and individually - contact your dealer for pricing

Vintage Plus Set - TRT1

A sweet sounding set with unrivalled clarity.

Rhythm, lead, chicken pickin' and slide never sounded better! Our Vintage Plus neck model offers warmth and clarity and enough punch for country, blues, pop and jazz applications and comes with our Nickel-Silver cover in gold or nickel (no tone sucking brass). The bridge uses aged magnets and is under-wound to retain the dynamic high-end that country players demand, without sacrificing the slightly compressed low-end that makes tele bridge pickups a joy to play. Rolling back the volume and tone slightly create a wonderfully open tone for combined rhythm and chord work.

• Characteristics: Vintage, great for rhythm and lead, extremely clear trebles, never muddy.
• Magnets: Alnico V
• DC Resistance: 6.8k (neck), 6.3k (bridge)
• RWRP for hum-cancelling in notch positions

Hot Classics Set - TRT2

Power Up Your Telecaster!

A higher wind on Alnico III magnets makes our Hot Classics a must for the rock and blues player who want more edge from their telecasters. Hot Classics have a stronger midrange, thicker bass response and a raunchy upper register. The Alnico III magnets offer great note separation, even for chord work using boost and overdrive pedals. Nickel and Gold covers are available at the same great price!

• Tone Guide: Loud, spanky, complex with a clear bass and strong mids.
• Magnets: Alnico III
• DC Resistance: 7.2k (neck), 9.1k (bridge)
• RWRP for hum-cancelling in notch positions
