Fender Custom Shop Josefina Hand Wound Tomatillo Telecaster Pickups
Fender’s Josefina Hand-wound Tomatillo Telecaster pickup set comes courtesy of Fender Custom Shop pickup Master Builder Josefina Campos, heating up your treasured Tele with a sweet southern kick. As the successor of Fender’s legendary Abigail Ybarra — the foremost pickup winder during Fender’s ’50s and ’60s vintage heyday — Josefina Campos hand-winds her pickups the old-fashioned way. As for the tone, this shellac-dipped set utilizes aged Alnico II magnets to replicate the sound of Alnico V magnets that have been played in since the 1950s, ensuring a clean, full, and chiming tone.
