Description
This is the neck pickup from the set Lari Basilio designed with Seymour Duncan to keep pace with her intricate, melody-driven style — a Tele-style single coil built to ring out clearly rather than blur into mush when the playing gets busy.
Under the hood, Alnico 5 magnets sit beneath the low strings for firm, focused low end, while Alnico 4 magnets cover the high strings, adding a touch of extra sparkle and top-end air compared to a straight Alnico 5 build. The result is classic Tele-style chime with enough clarity to keep fast runs and dense chord shapes from turning muddy.
Output is kept moderate by design, which matters more than it sounds — a hotter pickup would compress that top-end shimmer and fight against the humbucker Lari uses in the bridge position of her full set. Dial this neck pickup in for clean arpeggios, ambient swells, or as a bright counterpoint when you kick on drive or modulation further down your chain, and it responds well to more elaborate wiring setups if you want extra tonal options beyond the standard 3-way or 5-way switch.
