Description
For fans of the unmistakable tone of a Blackguard Tele® — punchy lows, fat mids and crisp, twangy highs — the Fender Custom Shop ’50/’51 Blackguard Telecaster® Pickups are faithful recreations of the originals. Crafted with large-diameter, unbeveled Alnico 3 magnets in the bridge pickup and Alnico 5 magnets in the neck, they’re wound using 43-gauge Enamel wire for authentic performance and tone.
Packed with open, lively, full-bodied character, these pickups feature a rare combination of design elements from the earliest 1950 Blackguard Telecasters in existence. Expect rich dynamics, vintage warmth, and that legendary Tele bite that defined a generation of sound.
