A Tele with disappointing pick-ups won't stay in your rack for long - they need to be good, and occasionally you need to fill a gap in the tonal palette it offers. We usually wind a set of Tele pick-ups to suit - we can do any output and character, even add dual output on an S-1; but the simplest most useful upgrade is to add a bit of beef without reverting to the traditional reverse phase or series option. Neither of these options really keep the character and soul of a Tele so we have a solution.

We have a 4-way switch in these - the neck tone and bridge tone where you want them to be on the switch sweep; and 2 middle positions. One is the traditional both together setting, the other is a tone that fills in the mids, and does a fairly good impression of a decent filtertron, but we really don't think we have heard this tone before on anything solid bodied before. Judge for yourself in the video. What's with the name? Because we developed it for Pelican Tom.

If you come to us chasing a sound and we manage to achieve it, the chances are we will name it after you!
