pickup CuNiFe wide range humbucker, chrome, neck

The first authentic CuNiFe-magnet-powered Wide Range pickup in more than 40 years delivers rich bell-like humbucking tone with full bass and clear treble. CuNiFe pickups have “hi-fi” clarity yet never lose their attack and definition no matter how hard they are pushed. A chrome cover with a “3+3” exposed pole piece design and Fender logo completes the vintage-’70s vibe.<br><br>As popular music roared with the fatter tones of humbuckers at the dawn of the 1970s, Fender hired acclaimed pickup designer Seth Lover to create a distinctly Fender-flavored take on a higher-output dual-coil pickup. The resulting Wide Range pickup used large bobbins and threaded CuNiFe-rod magnets to achieve its distinctively brilliant sound, as heard on that era’s Telecaster® Custom, Thinline and Deluxe guitars. Sought after by musicians of all genres for decades, the original-era real CuNiFe-magnet pickups disappeared when the Telecaster Custom was discontinued in 1979.<br><br>Cover Color: Chrome<br>DC Resistance: Bridge 11.2k – 11.8k, Neck 10.1K – 10.7K<br>Inductance: Bridge 5.3H, Neck 4.2H<br>Lead Wire: Single conductor coax<br>Magnet Type: CuNiFe<br>Magnet Wire: Polysol-coated<br>Pole Pieces: “3+3” exposed<br>Configuration: Single Pickup<br><br>
