Fender American Custom Shop Red Hot Telecaster Single-Coil Pickups (Set of 2)

Hot Telecaster Output with Classic Single-Coil Clarity

The Fender American Custom Shop Red Hot Telecaster Pickups set is built for players who want more output from a Telecaster without losing its clear, direct voice. Overwound for hot response, these single-coils deliver midrange bark and high-end sizzle, making them well suited to driving an amp into overdrive while keeping classic Telecaster clarity intact.

The bridge pickup uses Alnico 5 magnets for focus and enhanced dynamics, while the neck pickup uses Alnico 2 magnets for a warmer attack and smooth, rich midrange. Enamel-coated magnet wire adds warmth and midrange presence, and flush-mount pole pieces help create vintage-style string-to-string blending.

Period-correct cloth-covered lead wire and fibre bobbin construction add traditional detail, while wax potting helps resist feedback and protect the internal wiring. This USA-made set includes a chrome neck cover, uncovered bridge pickup and installation hardware.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think this Telecaster pickup set is a great choice for players who want hot Custom Shop output, stronger midrange punch and classic Telecaster clarity for driven rhythm and lead work.
