Warm and well balanced tone.

The Air Norton T is the Tele bridge replacement version of the full-size Air Norton. It's warm sounding, very well balanced, and has the same unique tonal characteristics as the original. Fatter and louder than a vintage humbucker but not as overwhelming as a metal pickup, it's a great way for Tele players to make their guitars rock-friendly.

Recommended For: All positions.

Tech Talk: The original Airbuckers have an air gap between the magnet and the pole pieces. The Air Norton T doesn't have this feature, but the sound, output and feel are so similar to the original that we couldn't call it anything else. It's a very good bridge pickup for all types of rock. The combination of medium output and harmonic bite are very effective for single-note soloing as well as chords. The split and parallel humbucking modes are very good, with a glassy sound closer to a stock Tele.

I installed this in a American Standard Ash Tele with a Maple Board. The cleans are good but a little thin. Probably a bit brighter than you would think. The dirty tones are pretty good. Well balanced with some nice bottom. The guitar can now be used for classic rock or hard rock. I have this paired up with a Dimarzio virtual-T on the neck, which retains a lot of the characteristic Tele tone, so the guitar overall is pretty versatile now. I don't think anyone should expect this pup to turn there tele into a metal guitar, but it definitely made mine more rock friendly. If you are doing classic rock with your Tele, I think this would be good choice but I recommended leaving a more traditional sounding pup on the neck for cleans.
