Seymour Duncan antq for telecaster lead raise deg

11024-27 classic spanky 50s tele lead tone but with raised d and g poles for better string balance. vintage 55 tele rhythm tone with a sweet treble response and a well-rounded low end. after early production of the flat-pole telecaster lead pickup, in 1954 fender began to manufacture pickups with raised d and g poles to provide a more even string response and output for those guitars with a 7.25 radius fretboard. with the antiquity tele 55 you get the same bright, twangy tone as our flat-pole antiquity tele lead but with a little more edge. the neck models bass response is full and round, and will add richness to your chords, while the specially calibrated hand-ground alnico 5 rod magnets, and custom coil winding give the treble a smoother, more musical attack. its great for big, bold rhythm playing, and percussive enough for classic country-style chicken pickin. a no-brainer upgrade to any telecaster, each antiquity tele 55 is hand-fabricated and scatter-wound in our custom shop, and all parts are aged to give the look and sound of a pickup that has been played for decades. we use vintage-style push-back cloth wire, and they are all lacquered and potted in lamp black paraffin wax, just like they were in the 50s.
