Josefina Handwound '50/'51 Blackguard Telecaster Pickups

For fans of the unmistakable tone of a Blackguard Tele—punchy lows, fat mids and crisp, twangy highs—the Josefina Handwound ’50-’51 Blackguard Tele pickups are faithful recreations of the originals. Crafted with large-diameter, unbeveled alnico 3 magnets in the bridge pickup and alnico 5 in the neck, they’re handwound using 43-gauge Formvar wire for authentic performance and sound.

Packed with open, lively, full-bodied tone, these pickups host a rare collection of features from the earliest versions of the 1950 Blackguard Tele in existence.
