Workshop Diary: Fitting Bare Knuckle Pickups To A Fender Telecaster
Fitting Bare Knuckle pickups to a Fender Telecaster
This is a Japanese Bound Tele that is in for a nice upgrade: we're installing a set of Bare Knuckle pickups. If this post inspires you to follow suit, we carry a good selection of Bare Knuckle and Tonerider pickups and our guitar tech Glen is always happy to advise on pickup selection and general wiring advice - so if you want to treat your favourite guitar to an upgrade just call in or email and we'll be happy to help.
Anyway, let's follow the process...

Finished and ready to go!
