This custom-made Telecaster NECK pickup has two outputs: NORMAL (6.4kOhm – white) and HOT (12kOhm – yellow). It’s like having two pickups in a single package, where the unique tone of each output offers a broad spectrum of sounds.
The NORMAL output has the classic tele neck tone—twangy and bright. Switching to the HOT output will deliver a fatter and warmer tone, adding extra punch and bite. You can install a switch or a push-pull pot, or simply connect the output that works best for you and start playing.
Additionally, we offer the option to build these pickups without an extra coil tap. You can select the DC resistance, Alnico alloy, and bottom bobbin color to customize your pickup exactly as you desire.

IMPORTANT!
Tele neck pickups can be installed using either WOOD or PICKGUARD screws. Please inform us if you require pickguard or wood mounting screws for this pickup. You can send us a message or leave a note on the checkout page.
#3 x 1″ Round Head Wood Screws
Wood mounting screws are designed to be fastened directly to the body of the guitar, beneath the pickguard. These screws necessitate a larger hole in the pickup, so we will enlarge the mounting holes to accommodate the wood screws.
#4 – 40UNC Phillips Pan Head Pickguard Screws
Pickguard screws are intended for attaching the pickup to the pickguard, allowing for height adjustment of the pickup without the need to remove the pickguard.
