Vintage in character with expanded fidelity.
The Danny Gatton T-Style
Tele Pickup Set features dual blade T-Style pickups. It was inspired by
Danny Gatton, one of best Tele guitarists to have lived. He wanted a new
model of high-end replacement pickups as opposed to those that were
merely variations on established designs or basic repair parts.
Originally
designed for Danny (and with Danny testing every step of the way) they
have become the first choice of professional Tele players worldwide. The
tone of these pickups can be described as absolutely vintage in
character, but with greatly expanded fidelity. The lows, mids, and highs
are all equal in strength, eliminating the thin, or ""tinny"" sound that
is often a problem with Tele-styled guitars.
The T-Neck is
remarkable in that it can be adjusted so that its output is actually
equal to the T-Bridge, thus solving the age-old Tele player's complaint:
huge output differences between the bridge and neck pickups. While
these pickups can be adjusted to greatly exceed the output level of
stock pickups, the authentic Tele twang and snap is maintained, and any
kind of noise, be it hum, hiss, or squeal, is completely eliminated.
The
T-Bridge features our unique ""staggered-blade"" design, common to all
Joe Barden single coil sized bridge pickups for Strats and Teles. The
staggered dual blade ensures balanced response on the outer strings.
These pickups are the best imaginable for the instrument that originally
defined the solid body electric guitar.
T-Style pickups fit
standard Tele body routs and require no modifications to the instrument.
They utilize 4 conductor shielded cable to allow for any possible
wiring combination and are supplied with wiring diagrams and mounting
hardware to facilitate installation.
