Description
DiMarzio didn’t just measure an old Tele pickup and rewind a copy — the Twang King was engineered to distill what made those early Broadcaster and Telecaster units special, then extend the dynamics beyond what a standard single-coil can do.
The defining trait here is touch sensitivity. Dig in and you’ll get a genuinely harder, louder, more aggressive response than comparable single-coils can muster; back off and the pickup falls away into a soft, quiet whisper. That spread comes from controlled-tension coil winding paired with special wire and magnets that are hand-calibrated rather than dropped in at random — small manufacturing choices that add up to a pickup that reacts to how you actually play, not just where the volume knob sits.
Double wax-potting keeps things quiet under gain and stage volume, so squeal and microphonic noise stay out of the way of the twang.
- Neck position single-coil pickup
- Gold cover finish
- Controlled-tension coil winding with special wire
- Hand-calibrated magnets for enhanced pick-attack response
- Double wax-potted for squeal-free performance
A solid pick for anyone chasing classic Tele snap without sacrificing dynamic feel.
