Basses Fender Fretted Instrument Accessories & Parts | Fender Cunife Wide Range Humbucker Pickup Chrome Neck

The First Authentic Cunife-Magnet-Powered Wide Range Pickup In More Than 40 Years Delivers Rich Bell-Like Humbucking Tone With Full Bass And Clear Treble. Cunife Pickups Have “Hi-Fi” Clarity Yet Never Lose Their Attack And Definition No Matter How Hard They Are Pushed. A Chrome Cover With A “3+3” Exposed Pole Piece Design And Fender Logo Completes The Vintage-’70S Vibe.

As Popular Music Roared With The Fatter Tones Of Humbuckers At The Dawn Of The 1970S, Fender Hired Acclaimed Pickup Designer Seth Lover To Create A Distinctly Fender-Flavored Take On A Higher-Output Dual-Coil Pickup. The Resulting Wide Range Pickup Used Large Bobbins And Threaded Cunife-Rod Magnets To Achieve Its Distinctively Brilliant Sound, As Heard On That Era’S Telecaster® Custom, Thinline And Deluxe Guitars. Sought After By Musicians Of All Genres For Decades, The Original-Era Real Cunife-Magnet Pickups Disappeared When The Telecaster Custom Was Discontinued In 1979.
