The Ancoats Granada Tele Set
Introducing the Ancoats Granada Telecaster Set! Me and Dave over at Ancoats Guitars have worked together to come up with a set of telecaster pickups that are a blend of vintage inspiration and modern innovation in order to meet the demands of today’s players. Drawing from a love of classic tones while incorporating some modern ideas, these pickups embody the perfect balance of warmth, clarity and versatility.
Key Features of the Granada Set
1. Custom Magnet Blend:
The pickups feature a mix of magnets, delivering a tonal palette that is rich, dynamic, and expressive. This ensures a sweet, warm high end, focused mids, and a tight, controlled low end response, making the pickups versatile across genres.
2. Vintage Roots with Modern Output:
While inspired by the classic sounds of vintage single-coils, they are wound with a subtle boost in output, offering enhanced dynamic range while retaining the nuanced detail and feel of traditional designs. This makes them equally effective for cleans or gritty, overdriven tones.
3. Built for Versatility:
Designed for players who navigate multiple styles, they excel in jazz, funk, blues, rock, and beyond. Whether laying down intricate rhythm work or playing leaf, these pickups deliver with precision and confidence.
4. Refined Neck and Bridge Designs:
The neck pickup offers warm, rounded tones with exceptional clarity, ideal for melodic lines and chord voicings. When designing the bridge, we both agreed that a lot of modern telecasters can be too harsh when it comes to high frequencies. This Granada bridge pickup balances classic twang and bite with a refined top-end and a robust low-mid punch, making it perfect for snappy rhythms or cutting leads.
5. Dynamics and Range:
The Granada set allows players to express every nuance of their style. They shine equally in clean settings or when pushed with overdrive, always delivering a musical and articulate response.
The Ancoats Granada set is a celebration of tone, bridging the best of vintage character with modern flexibility. Whether you’re chasing sweet cleans or driven tones, these pickups provide the range, responsiveness, and musicality to handle any performance.
