Description
The Pearly Gates has been a go-to humbucker since the late ’70s for players chasing something fatter and warmer than a stock P.A.F., minus the loss of clean articulation. Seymour Duncan has now packed that same voicing into a Telecaster-bridge-size housing, so Tele players can get in on the action.
Drop this into your bridge position and you get a pickup built for range: it’ll growl and push into overdrive for hard rock riffing, then clean up nicely for country picking and twangy leads. The humbucking design cancels hum, but it’s tuned to keep the snap and bite that makes a Telecaster sound like a Telecaster in the first place – just with more low-end grunt and midrange push behind it.
- Direct-fit for Telecaster bridge routes (humbucker-size)
- Based on the classic Pearly Gates voicing – thicker and warmer than a standard P.A.F.
- Retains clean dynamics and touch sensitivity
- Preserves Tele-style twang and bite while adding grit for rock and hard rock tones
- Versatile enough for country, rock, and everything between
If you love your Telecaster’s attitude but want more muscle when you dig in, this is the bridge pickup built to deliver it.
