Tele® players often complain that their low strings sound "mushy" and their high strings are too bright - especially in the bridge position. The Five-Two concept corrects this with Alnico 5 magnets on the three low strings and Alnico 2 magnets on the three high strings. The result is an all-around, extremely well-balanced pickup with traditional output and vintage appointments such as vulcanized fibre bobbins, formvar wire, vintage magnet stagger and waxed cloth hookup cable.
The Five Two Tele is available for both rhythm (neck) position (STR52-1) and lead (bridge) position (STL52-1). The Rhythm pickup is RW/RP for hum canceling when using both pickups together.
