Telecaster style pickups with reduced feedback and vintage tone.
The chickin’ pickin’, funkadelic tones of the Sheptone Telecaster pickup set knows no boundaries. Each pickup is built with the material, attention to detail and time it takes to do it right. Both pickups are heavily potted to reduce feedback with adjustments made to the magnets and windings to eliminate the mismatched volume problem commonly found in vintage sets. Vintage push wire helps the Telecaster pickups stay trie to the authenticity of the originals. Resistance may vary from set to set since the winding process goes strictly by the number of turns of wire but DC resistances tend to be around 7.6k for the bridge and 7.0k for the neck.
