Gearank High Notes

• 2021.11: Highest Rated Single Coil Telecaster-Size Pickup Set Under $150

Gearank Recommendation

The Seymour Duncan Quarter Pound Tele set appeared on our recommended list for Budget Guitar Pickup Sets Under $150 in 1 edition from November 2021 until October 2022 when it was removed due a price increase that made it ineligible for the list.

Overview

The Quarter Pound Tele Set from Seymour Duncan is described as having an almost P90-like growl to them.

They are the highest output true single coil offering from Seymour Duncan and are a tad bit darker and thicker than your usual single coils but not as much as humbucker pickups.

These overwound pickups possess a pronounced midrange that will help you cut through a mix.
