Unleash the raw power of your Telecaster with Quarter Pound pickups that bring serious midrange growl and cutting drive to your sound. The Quarter Pound Tele Rhythm pickup features a custom overwound coil that produces powerful midrange frequencies, cutting through dense mixes without harsh brightness or brash tones. This makes it exceptional for rhythm work with massive-sounding chords and full, fat lead tones that command attention.
The Quarter Pound Tele Lead stands as Seymour Duncan’s highest output Telecaster single coil pickup. Its specially designed high output coil, combined with hand polished ¼” diameter alnico 5 rod magnets, creates a huge sound with an almost P90-like growl. Lead lines jump forward with increased fatness, while chord work becomes rich with sparkly midrange harmonics - perfect for Tele players who demand to be heard above the mix.
These high output Telecaster pickups are hand built in Santa Barbara, California using premium components including hand polished ¼” diameter alnico 5 rod magnets and Forbon flatwork. The traditional deep drawn chrome plated Telecaster cover for the neck position maintains authentic aesthetics, while wax potting ensures squeal-free performance during high-gain applications.
