Product Rating Product Review Put this pickup in the bridge of a Fender Richie Kotzen Tele. Was looking for a vintage tone but with more attitude. This pickup nails the tone i was looking for. Its got the snarl in the mids imwas looking for. Bright bit not strident top end,and the bass is pulled back slightly. I experimented with height settings,have it now at 3/32”,seems well balanced there. Handles classic rock,country,and blues really well. If youre looking for a snarly tele pickup this is it. Not a high output unit mind you,just big on attitude.

Great Barking Pickup that goes from Clean to Mean

Product Review I stumbled unto this pickup and have never been more pleased with a Telecaster. Most tele pickups were always too thin sounding to ever get that ultimate tele twang and bark of Rock and Roll. This pickup does it all and very well. If your Tele is lacking you won't be disappointed when you install this.

Great pickup!

Very well made. Only had it for a few weeks ... but it's well made. Your general opinion of this product. This is a great product at a bargain price. N/A It's bright like a tele pickup should be, but with the use of a little tone control, the pickup changes character... as it should. easily adjustable.

Fantastic Pick Up for Esquire Conversion

Seymour Duncan has always made a high quality product. I've used his pick ups since the 1970's I have an original Jeff Beck humbucker from at least 25 years ago that still sounds amazing. I've been offered real money for it but I think I'll leave it in my will after I'm gone! Your general opinion of this product. This pick in particular is an amazing sounding device. I put it in a brand new Squire Custom Vibe Tele that I converted to Esquire electronics (single Pick up and different wiring ) and this inexpensive (but very well made) import Tele came alive with the spankiest Esquire sounds you've ever heard. It sounds great super clean or real dirty with pedals. If your considering this pick up, get it, you won't be sorry. NA Strong output, full sounding, capable of tremendous spank (but no "ice pick" treble) and a nice round sound with highs rolled off. Perfect pick up for an Esquire mod! I would buy this again in a second. NA NA

Your general opinion of this product.

QUALITY:
Quality seems to me to be flawless. You can tell a cheap pickup from a top notch pickup, and this definitely falls into the top notch category.

FEATURES:
It does what it does. It's main feature is making your average sounding guitar sound killer. And it does just that.

EASE OF USE:
Again, what can you say? It's a pickup. strum your guitar and it works. can't be much easier than that.

VALUE:
this is cheap as heck for what it does for your tone. WHAT a difference. I have Fender Mexican Tele and it's like night and day. I can't believe I was once stressing over my amps tone when all i Needed to do was add this pickup!

SOUND:
awesome awesome awesome. i have a traynor ycv40 combo. the gain channel comes to life with this pickup. before, it was kinda nasal and nasty sounding, and not in a good way. now it's all opened up beautifully. once again, this pickup rules. clean channel... am
