Seymour Duncan SAPTR-1 RW/RP APTR-1 Tele Alnico II Neck-Single Coil Pickup

Product Information

This incredible guitar is still going strong today and we make sure we’ve always got a massive selection of the best Fender Teles here at Andertons! In the case of pickups, the most significant characteristic is the gauss strength, which is a measure of the density of the magnetic field. For players who don't use a pick, you’ll notice the response feels more balanced compared with pickups that use alnico 5 magnets.

The Creamery has no affiliation with these companies and names are used only for descriptive purposes. They'd probably sell from the get go to people like us because the GAS will be strong with this one.But, they also have the "modified" variants which are brought up to current spec (fretboard radius, etc).

If you’re not 100% pleased with the sound of your Seymour Duncan pickups, you can exchange them for up to 21 days after purchase. I was saying that the mexican models(Standard) are like the american models(not Highway 1) in a lot of ways.

There have been both documented and undocumented changes in the H1 line, but some instruments in the H1 line are using the MIM Standard "Upgrade" necks with different decals.

It consists of a usually white or black body with all black hardware, ebony fingerboard, dual EMG humbuckers, single master volume control and a hardtail bridge.

The electronics were easily accessed for repair or replacement through a removable control plate, a great advantage over the construction of the then-predominant hollow-body instruments, in which the electronics could be accessed only through the sound holes. Controls include a dual concentric volume pot for each pickup, a master tone and 3-way pickup switching. We don't want any high or low spots as this will mean your guitar will need a higher than optimum action and potentially suffer with fret buzz. Keeping to that authentic Tele feel, Seymour Duncan hand assemble the bobbin with the period correct colour and thickness Forbon and alnico 5 rod magnets, then lacquer it before winding.
