Full Description
View Full DescriptionStrummer-inspired tone with real bite
This set captures the character of Joe Strummer’s signature sound: bold, brash and clear. The pickups are voiced with extra midrange punch and low-end focus, making them great for rhythm parts that need to stay front and centre in a mix. Clean or driven, the tone stays articulate and defined.
Higher-output bridge for extra attack
The bridge pickup features a hotter output, giving your sound more bite and edge. This lets you push amps and pedals harder, delivering that gritty, snarling tone Strummer was known for. It suits punk, garage rock and other high-energy styles that need raw drive without losing clarity.
Classic warmth in the neck
In contrast to the punchy bridge, the neck pickup delivers a smoother, more rounded tone. Ideal for melodic parts, clean rhythms or laid-back leads, it adds warmth and fullness without sounding muddy. It pairs well with the bridge to give you a wide tonal range across different playing styles.
Easy upgrade for any Tele setup
This pickup set fits standard Telecaster routing and wiring. It’s a simple drop-in replacement designed to add more attitude and character. With vintage-inspired voicing and modern reliability, it suits players looking to update or complete their Tele without hassle.
