The guitar played beautifully but had unfortunately been refinished in black acrylic paint. So, Brad brought the guitar to veteran luthier and paisley paper expert Bill Crook to have the black paint stripped away and a classic '68 paisley pattern applied instead. After removing some of the thick black paint, Bill stumbled upon a surprise that would shock them both: Fender's original pink paisley finish from 1968! Brad dubbed the guitar La Brea because the black paint hiding the perfectly intact, all-original pink paisley paper reminded him of the tar pits in Southern California.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1292\" data-start=\"990\"\u003eAt this point, Brad loved almost everything about La Brea, but there was still something that wasn't quite right, the pickups. Naturally, Brad called his buddy Seymour W. Duncan, and together they created the perfect, vintage-accurate matched pickups, the Brad Paisley Signature La Brea Telecaster Set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1867\" data-start=\"1294\"\u003eThe bridge model features Alnico IV rod magnets, vintage-correct cloth push-back wire, vintage output of 7.44k, and classic grey Forbon flatwork, giving you the wonderful open quality that you expect from a vintage pickup, but with the focused midrange that only an Alnico IV magnet can provide. The neck pickup uses Alnico II rod magnets alongside an output of 7.55k, and the same period-correct wire and flatwork to provide a smooth, thick neck tone. Together, these pickups deliver the snap and twang that Brad is known for, with a round top end and full but tight lows.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Seymour Duncan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53125565219125,"sku":"Duncan-Brad Paisley La Brea Tele Set-FU","price":85.37,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0532\/9839\/7369\/files\/151150.jpg?v=1783967012","url":"https:\/\/crazydavesmusic.com\/products\/seymour-duncan-brad-paisley-la-brea-telecaster-set-open-box","provider":"Crazy Dave's Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
