Instrument

The pickup is for an early Squire Tele from the 80's and replaced the neck pickup I love this guitar but was finding it a little harsh and trebley was considering a 72 deluxe reissue Fender Tele but boy am I glad that I didnt spend all that dosh now as the Headsmasher boys have given me the sound I was after at a fraction of the cost. It replaces the single coil neck pick up,still has the original bridge pickup but that will be changed soon,I wanted a more creamy sound.But also didnt want to compromise the overall Tele sound and that is excactly what they have delivered.

I play this through a Vox AC50CP2 amp playing mostly rock orientated tunes,the difference the pick up has made is that I now still retain that classic tele twang from the bridge but it is a completely different sound when switched to the headsmasher almost like two guitars in one,really deep and growly in the middle position going into a lovely crunchy tone when set to the neck position gigged it last night and he boys in the band all commented on how good it was sounding
Overall Rating

This pickup does everything that I wanted it to do and more
