I have one of the AO 70s teles and the neck pickup is out of this world. They’ve done a great job.

I’d say a kind of bell like tone when clean. It sounds transparent and full of twang when you play with overdrive. One of the very best neck pickups I’ve heard. Plus the guitar has an all over nitro finish unlike the originals and is about 7.5 pounds. It’s just a really great guitar.

I have the new run of CuNiFe WRHBs in my '72 Thinline Tele reissue, and this is absolutely a spot-on description. It really is playing a guitar like ringing a bell. Also, the attack and note separation on the bridge PU? Chef's kiss.
