Fender
®
Pickups are and have always been an industry leader.
Throughout the years, Fender has made more pickups than all
other pickup manufacturers combined. From Telecaster
®
single
coils, to five-string Precison Bass
®
pickups and high output
humbuckers, Fender has right pickup for you. Fender has over 60 years of manufacturing
experience and some of the best engineers and craftsmen in the industry.
Designed and produced with the same unsurpassed attention to detail and quality
components as their world-renowned instruments, Custom Shop pickups are uniquely Fender.
All Custom Shop pickups are constructed with cloth lead wires, fiber bobbins, and are wax
potted in our special potting machine to insure that your pickups will be free of microphonics.
No matter what tone you are looking for, the Fender Custom Shop can deliver.
