Exquisite pickups - Handwound by Josefina Campos
For the pickup equipment of the Fender '74/'51 Nocaster Heavy Relic MBDB Nocaster Blonde #R131535 no expense or effort was spared and extremely exquisite pickups were selected. The Fender Wide Range Humbucker installed in the neck position impresses with a wide-ranging sound image and, thanks to the use of CuNiFe magnets, produces typical Fender sounds of the seventies. In the bridge position, on the other hand, a '50 - '51 Nocaster single coil, which was personally wound by Josefina Campos , provides the sound. Josefina skillfully continues the legacy of Abigail Ybarra and is responsible for the most sought-after pickup models from Fender.
