Monty's'FullMontyTelecaster is a slightly modern style Telecaster pickup that aims for a higher output sound while maintaining the clear Telecaster sound.

The front has a tone reminiscent of the front of a Strat, and the rear has a tone close to that of a P90, but without losing the sound typical of a Telecaster. It also has a low-mid effect, making it an almighty player in the modern music scene.

Similar to the specifications of Vintage pickups, potting is applied only partially, so there is no wax in the center of the coil, allowing for a clearer and more responsive sound.

In addition, the front pickup has an RWRP specification that provides hum canceling when in the middle position.
