Seymour Duncan SAPTR-1 RW/RP APTR-1 Tele Alnico II Neck-Single Coil Pickup

Product Information

The Telecaster quickly became a popular model, and has remained in continuous production since its first incarnation. Either way, I concur on the notion of a limp Tele neck pick up as outdated and a no longer apt reputation in this day and age. This medium output, single coil sized pickup has a nice, even bass and treble response with a slightly scooped midrange that gives it that classic, full bodied humbucker sound. Initially, the Broadcaster name was simply cut off of the labels placed on the guitars (leading to a limited run of nameless guitars known unofficially as Nocasters) and later in 1951, the final name of Telecaster was applied to the guitar to take advantage of the advent of television. Engaging the S-1 switch on this particular Telecaster introduces out-of-phase circuitry to blade switch positions two and four only, with positions one and three remaining unaffected.

The technician will check and cut each slot to make sure the strings both run freely but are not sitting in a slot that's too big. This metal rod differs from guitar to guitar (some guitars such as classical guitars don't usually have a truss rod!This model also had two volume and two tone control knobs on the front of the guitar, rather than the usual one. You say no to a PRS Tele because you want to company to stay original but there is nothing original about them.

In particular the neck is virtually identical to the american standard (save for some finishing of the medium jumbo frets) including the finish. To complement the distinct twang and punch of the Vintage 54 Lead, our Telecaster Vintage Rhythm pickup was designed for a smooth open tone with warm lower mids and airy highs.

While they all get rotated, I usually use a Tele as the primary as they stay in tune well and you can go to open tunings easily.

I was saying that the mexican models(Standard) are like the american models(not Highway 1) in a lot of ways. The bridge pickup has more windings than the neck pickup, hence producing higher output, which compensates for a lower amplitude of vibration of the strings at the bridge position. The base model has always been available, and other than a change to the pickup selector switch configuration, a thinning of the neck, and a few variations on the bridge design, it has remained mostly unchanged from the 1950s. Even though the Telecaster is almost three quarters of a century old, and more sophisticated designs have appeared since the early 1950s (including Fender's own Stratocaster), the Telecaster remains in production.

It has virtually nothing in common with an "American" series, despite much false advertising by Musician's Friend and others (same goes for all in the H1 series).

All their humbuckers from the past 10 years have been nothing but an attempt to copy what Gibson did in the 50s. The Classic Vibe and Vintage Modified Teles are some of the best value for money instruments on the market.

The first position stayed the same as before, with the neck pickup in "dark circuit" treble-cut mode. It really saddens me that people would rather have PRS rebuild guitars that other companies created back in the 50s.
