Bridge
Summary
Telecaster lead pickup with a special combination of alnico 2
and 5 magnets positioned to deliver tighter lows and sweeter highs.
Description
The Five-Two was
originally designed for Nashville studio players who wanted to soften
the treble attack on their high strings while retaining all of the
articulate snap on the low strings. The result was a mixture of alnico 2
and alnico 5 rod magnets that delivers the best of both worlds. The
alnico 2 rods are positioned under the G, B, & E strings to provide
sweet treble response. The alnico 5 rods are positioned under the low E,
A, & D, strings for a bright, snappy tone with enhanced midrange
and articulation. This combination results in an all-around well
balanced pickup with traditional output that is neither too bright nor
too mushy.Combine with our Five-Two Tele neck rwrp for a perfectly
matched, and quiet, set.The authentic look and sound are brought
together by waxed cloth hookup wire, standard .187′ diameter alnico 2
& 5 rod magnets, and a copper plated steel bottom plate.
