Not something you see every day 👀 – This Custom 7-String Tele Set is all done for Terry’s New Custom Build. It’s a Traditional Tele set with individual Alnico 5 magnets, Vulcanized Fiberboard construction & a RWRP Bridge for humcancelling in the middle position. We made a custom Richlite cover for the Neck pup to go with the guitar's esthetics 👍.

Don’t let the humbucker sizing fool you - Lyric Dubee's Ernie Ball Sterling Albert Lee is all Tele all the time! We wound the pickups to Tele specs and retro-fitted custom bobbins to mount into the existing cavity – We’ve got that old Tele twangy without doing any routing but we did change out all the electronics 😉👍

The MJS Tri-Fecta Pickups 😁 - This is our take on the Classic Single Coils. A little more warmth, a little more power. These pups have a special magnet and a RWRP middle pickup along with a steel reflector baseplate. A new look at a Classic pickup 👍.
Happy Thanksgiving to all our Canadian Friends!🦃🍁
