Description
Seymour Duncan Brad Paisley La Brea Tele Bridge Pickup
The Brad Paisley La Brea bridge pickup delivers the vintage twang and articulate snap that cuts through any mix on stage or in the studio. Built to Paisley's exacting specifications for his signature hybrid picking approach, this is the pickup choice for Tele players who demand authentic vintage character without compromising modern clarity and punch. Hand-wound in Santa Barbara with period-correct materials, it combines proven vintage authenticity with the reliability gigging musicians depend on.
Tone & Construction
Alnico IV rod magnets and vintage-correct cloth push-back wire produce the bright, percussive attack and natural breakup that make the Telecaster a live staple and studio favorite. The 7.44kΩ DC resistance sits in the ideal sweet spot for bridge duty—aggressive enough to slice through a dense mix and cut on stage, yet balanced enough to preserve note definition and dynamic response across the pickup's full range, especially for technique-driven players.
Materials & Specifications
Classic grey forbon flatwork ensures structural integrity and tonal consistency through hundreds of gigs, while Santa Barbara manufacturing guarantees quality control and meticulous attention to detail in every winding and assembly step. This pickup drops in seamlessly to any Tele bridge position with standard 0.43" × 0.68" Telecaster mounting footprints, making it a no-fuss swap for road-ready setups.
