Great pickups, man!

Hi Cesar - fantastic video and fantastic video. I've been researching Telecaster pickups and I think I am sold on these Lindy Fralins. Thanks!

@mattskinnergms 3 года назад

Sorry, I meant fantastic video and fantastic playing.

@CesarBenzoni 3 года назад

Much appreciated, Matt! Thanks for the kind words and I'm glad it helped!

Matt, did you ever get the Fralin pups?

@mattskinnergms Год назад

@@edmondlau511 Yes sir, I did. The Blues Specials. Amazing!!

@marinepilot5723 2 года назад

I have the 5% overwound set and they are awesome!

@CesarBenzoni 2 года назад

Class! I need to try more of them

Dropped a set into a cheapo Squier CV50 a few months ago and it's simply an AMAZING sounding guitar now. I did add brass saddles and disconnected the neck pup from the tone pot (which helps with clarity and output!!). I wanted to compare it with a USA Tele Pro II...so I bought one. Both are great...but the Squier just shines with them Fralins...clear, balanced, stringy, dynamic, responsive, and full. I bought another CV50 to drop a set of Lollar Special T's to compare....coming tomorrow. Can't wait.

@CesarBenzoni 8 месяцев назад

That's class! It's great to be able to do A/B comparisons

@lazvt8469 8 месяцев назад

@@CesarBenzoni Indeed. The Lollars are also fantastic...a bit more full than the Fralins which seem also a bit chimier (perhaps due to thinner tone vs Lollar). Now I have two wonderful budget Teles that forced me to learn to solder and wire my own pups. I'm 62, dogs do learn new tricks!

@CesarBenzoni 8 месяцев назад

Haaa good man! I never tried a Lollar, I hope to do so

So they have these and the ones that are 5 percent hotter ?? They sound fantastic whichever you're using here. Looking for a new pair to swap with some cheapos in a partscaster. Cheers

@CesarBenzoni 2 года назад

Actually I'm didn't know about the 5% hotter ones, I'll take a look! Thanks!

@CBGypsy03 2 года назад

@@CesarBenzoni Awesome. Noticed you don't have a cover on the neck, any particular reason? Thanks man.

@CesarBenzoni 2 года назад

@@CBGypsy03 hey! No, it's just the way the pickup is actually. It doesn't have the lipstic cover

@charles3200 2 года назад

Can these pickups do a good jazz tone?

@CesarBenzoni 2 года назад

Yes, Charlie. They could sound jazzy in the neck pickup with good balance in the tone knob. Obviously, it would not sound like an archtop, but they will sound pretty good ;-)

@fritzcapp2061 3 года назад

Im not familiar with fralin.... how much hum with the pickups

@CesarBenzoni 3 года назад

For a single-coil pickup, I find them really quiet. They are really good pickups

@unicorndestroyer1853 2 года назад

why does it sound thin? i thought they supposed to be thick

@CesarBenzoni 2 года назад

Hey! I don't find it thin actually. I find them snappy, but you can always pull the tone knob back a bit. All the best!

@jkf9167 Год назад

They're not thin sounding. They're stringy and capture the tone of the string really well. Listen to other demos from players who were seeking out a darker, fatter sound from these pickups. Everyone has their own taste, and these can sound prett thick (by Telecaster standards) if that's what you're after.

@44scoots Год назад

Great video! But next time let's see more of the guitar and not the room. Thx.

@CesarBenzoni Год назад

Thanks, man! I didn't have a second camera at the time for another angle, but this particular video is more about the sound of the pickup than the guitar itself anyway. Cheers!
