Price range: 69,00 € through 138,00 € VAT Excluded Price. If required VAT is applied at checkout.
The 1952–53 AlNiCo 5 Blackguard-style Telecaster pickup set delivers a bright, punchy vintage tone with strong Tele twang, clear and articulate highs, tight bass with a slightly more bite in the bridge position. The neck stays warm but still open and woody.
It’s low-to-moderate output and very dynamic, capturing that raw early-’50s Telecaster sound with lots of snap and clarity.
