BLACKGUARD - ALNICO 3 TELE® PICKUPS
The alnico 3 magnets produce a remarkably clear tone with an even frequency
response. They have a lower overall output than alnico 5, and the bass tone is
leaner and tighter than alnico 2. The near absence of cobalt in alnico 3 causes
it to have less magnetic pull, impeding string vibration the least, allowing
the player to articulate every subtle nuance of their playing style.
The construction stays true to vintage traditions by using vintage push back
cloth leads, heavy formvar magnet wire, vulcanized fibre bobbins, combined with
an upgraded neck cover made of deep drawn out pure nickel silver for improved
transparency. The neck pickup also comes equipped with the 3 wire mod (a
dedicated ground wire for the cover) giving you the option to use a 4-way
switch with both pickups in series.
