Description
From their premium range, Wilkinsons WVTN, WVTB & WVOB are probably the best value professional level pickups on the market today for ‘Tele® type’ guitars. These WVTN 60’s-voiced pickups will deliver all of the authentic ‘Twang’ you’ll need. Considering their high quality specifications and superb build quality, you would easily expect to pay 2 or 3 times the price from other pickup manufacturers for similar quality products, they really are that good!
This is the neck pickup position only.

This pickup sounds so good!! Worth twice the price for sure. So happy with the purchase, the vintage line from Wilkinson will probably become my first choice for a lot of builds.

ZERO STARS is the proper rating. THIS PIECE OF JUNK does not deserve the Wilkinson name. To their credit Solo guitars issued a refund no questions asked. First, it has tapered narrow wood srews that come to a point that hold the pickup in place. These screws immediately stripped the hole in the pickup base plate on one side even before the pickup was raised high enough to clear the pickguard in a Tele kit. One can only assume this horrible design goes back to the early fifties vintage design where pickups were screwed into the wood and could not be raised or lowered. THE SECOND ERROR in this 60’s vintage design is just as grevious being that even when brought close the strings (before slipping back down on one side) this pickup has such a low output it is impossible to even remotely balance it with the bridge position pickup – my amp is usually set at 3 and I had to turn it up to 7 to get any output at all from this flat sounding piece of junk. I hope Solo guitars stops carrying this horribly designed item that is so misleading because it bears the Wilkinson name.
