    Description

    50s Broadcaster and Nocaster pickups had somewhat unique specs - during these couple of years Fender used thinner 43AWG wire for both pickups.
    .195" diameter Alnico 3 magnets coupled with 43AWG Plain enamel wire resulted in legendary and quite distinctive tone of the early 50s Fender electric guitar. Warm and bright - with extra bite and punch in the bridge position.
    R.W.R.P. - hum canceling when both pickups are active.

    IMPORTANT!
    Tele neck pickups can be mounted with WOOD or PICKGUARD screws.
    Please let us know if you need the pickguard or wood mounting screws with this pickup. You can send us a message or leave a note on the checkout page.
    #3 x 1" Round Head Wood Screws - this is the way Fender did it back in the day;
    Wood mounting screws are screwed to the body/ wood - under the pickguard - and these require a larger hole in the pickup - so we will re-drill the mounting holes in the pickup to fit the wood screws.
    #4 - 40UNC Phillips Pan Head Pickguard Screws
    Pickguard screws are used for mounting the pickup on the pickguard - this way the pickup height can be adjusted without removing the pickguard.
