WHAT OUR TEAM THOUGHT

For an inexpensive set of pickups, they sound fantastic. They offer a beautiful sound that is similar to a Stratocaster, and they give you exceptional low end and a dynamic high frequency which country players will love.

The EMT-T pickups may be the best humbucker style pickups that you can get for a Tele. They will keep the sound to a minimum and will give you a smooth tone to work with. They are also pretty easy to install, so you should be able to get up and running pretty quickly.
