DP112BK

DP112BK. Pre B-1™ Bridge.

There are two kinds of TelexAE players: country pickers for whom twang is king (we don’t make Twang King™ pickups for nothing, right?), and players of blues and rock who need less high-end snap and more low-end muscle. We’re not talking imitation humbucker-sound here. ThePre B-1™ maintains a lot of the basic character of the TelexAE bridge position, but the sound is bigger. It can still cut through a mix, but it will fill more space, as well. It also has about 25% more power than a stock TelexAE bridge pickup. That means thicker overdrive and more sustain from your favorite tube amp.

Recommended For Standard TelexAE bridge position.

Tech Talk
TelecasterxAE guitars may seem very basic, but the differences in maple and rosewood fingerboards, body woods and even bridge and saddle materials mean there are a lot of different-sounding axes around, and some of them are very piercing. Rolling the tone down can turn the sound to mud. The Pre B-1™ attacks the problem by fattening up the highs and boosting the mids and lows. We've left the traditional bottom plate off the Pre B-1™ was designed to work without it.
