Description

A 1960s Teisco/Kawai Gold foil pickup as found in many models.  This one is the good one with the ceramic magnet in the centre and a plastic bobbin/coil that surrounds it.  This is more true to the original DeArmond design that had a centre magnet with the coil wrapped around it.  It reads 5.05k on the meter and these pickups have a rich and gritty tone so are great for high gain slide!  I have put new 40cm long leads on this one with an independent ground wire making it easier to phase match with other pickups.  I have also used epoxy glue to put it all make together so it will sing for another 60 or so years.  It has wear, patina and mojo with a nice clean gleaming gold foil.  There are a few spots where the chrome has flaked off, see pics.  It comes with clean stainless screws designed to screw into a guitar body.
