COOL JOE - Vintage Tele Growl with Muscle

NZ$129.00

Cool Joe
Classic Telecaster bridge tone with a bit more beef - jangly, biting, and ready for rock, punk, country, and blues.

Every Kingdom Pickup is made by hand, one at a time, in our small Auckland workshop. Our Kingdom Pickups Cool Joe Tele bridge pickups uses USA-made Alnico V poles, vulcanized fiberboard bobbins, vintage pushback wire, and is wax-potted for noise control. A solid steel baseplate adds more horsepower and low-end body without losing that unmistakable Tele growl and snarl.

Wound to around 8k DCR, Cool Joe nails the big, jangly, biting tones that define the Telecaster – think Keith Richards, Springsteen, Jimmy Page, Merle Haggard, and modern players like Graham Coxon and Jonny Greenwood, but scatterwound with our own secret mojo for a sound that’s deep, complex, nuanced, and expressive.

Perfect for punk, country, rock, or blues, it’s the ultimate “classic Tele” voice with just a little extra beef from the baseplate.


PLEASE NOTE:

  • Screws and springs included.

  • The baseplate can be removed but comes soldered on as standard

  • DCR ratings are ± 10%

  • Polepieces are not staggered unless stated. After a load of testing we cannot find any real reason for this to be a thing.

  • Lead time = 1-2 weeks. We make these by hand to order, and while we do keep a small inventory on hand, we cannot always guarantee availability.
