Our most popular pickup set of all time, this telecaster set features a higher wind on Alnico 3 magnets, scatterwound for maximum tone!

All Hot Classics are now made with flat magnet polepieces (no stagger) on the bridge pickup for a early 50s correct look.

The bridge pickup is wound on a black fibreboard bobbin and wrapped with black string, and a copper-plated ferrous baseplate. All Hot Classics are now made with flat magnet polepieces (no stagger) on the bridge pickup for a early 50s correct look.

The neck pickup features our in-house Nickel-Silver cover for tonal transparency, and we include wood screws for direct mounting to the body, and two #4/40 pan head screws for use when mounting the pickup to a pickguard.

Each pickup is fully wax potted to reduce any microphonic feedback, and comes supplied with screws, latex height adjustment tubing and an installation guide.

Hot Classic Neck

I purchased the TR Hot Classic Neck pickup because it matches up well with a Fender RI 52 bridge pickup. I love TR pickups because the price is right, and they sound great. If you are looking affordable great sounding pups. I highly recommend ToneRider pickups be your next choice. I've purchased sets of TRs Phatt Cat P90s, Soapbar P90s, and Tele Vintage Plus pups. They have never let me down, and I think a lot of players feel the same way I do.

Upgrade to Squir 40th Anniversary Tele

Purchased a set of Hot Classics and wow! These have the extra grit I was looking for and all the classic clean twang needed by rolling back the volume just a smidge. Very impressed with build quality, speed of delivery and price. Great pickups!

great tone

My friend installed the Hot Classics set along with new hardware, tuners, switches, potentiometers, the whole works. He installed a four-way switch with only bridge, only next, both in parallel, both in series. So many combinations of sounds that I'm trying to get used to - it's like a new guitar!!! I'm extremely satisfied.
