Joe Barden T Neck Danny Gatton Telecaster PickupSome of the most coveted pickups in Telecaster Land, the Joe Barden T Series were designed in conjunction with the late great Danny Gatton. The tone of these pickups can be described as absolutely vintage in character, but with greatly expanded fidelity. The lows, mids, and highs are all equal in strength, eliminating the thin, or "tinny" sound that is often a problem with Tele styled guitars.
