The vintage-style single-coil pickups offer an authentic Telecaster sound, although they might produce more hum compared to higher-end models. While the hardware quality leaves something to be desired, with flimsy knobs and a wobbly jack, the guitar's overall build is decent with proper care. ...

Today, lipstick pickups and their tone are still synonymous with the Danelectro sound. Like Filter’Trons to Gretsch, PAFs to Gibson, and Strat single-coils to Fender, they essentially define the soul of the brand.But then Danelectros are no longer the only place you’...
Strat Pickups from the ’70s were dipped in lacquer – a process that worked for years. However, as the lacquer aged, it flaked off and allowed moisture to enter the coil. Furthermore, lacquer does not penetrate the coil – it merely coats the surface. Because of this, Paraffin Wax is ...
