Flat 6 T-Style
T's from the 60's have an open airy sound to them. They are known to cut through the mix and be very expressive. These pickups are exactly that. The neck pickup is wound to a higher output than the bridge. 7.4K and 6.8K respectively. This makes for an amazingly balanced tone without have that "cut your head off" high end. These pickups are very lightly wax potted, contributing to their open tone but still suppressing unwanted feedback. They are constructed using classic forbon bobbins and cloth wire. Alnico 5 magnets carefully gaussed and measured by hand.
The flat top magnets make these a more balanced tone especially when used with more modern fret board radii.

Dylan Talks Tone Flat 6 & DAF Pickup's Together! Man, I'm happy with Dylan Leather Limited Edition DAF & Flat 6. Now I know why people who have the Flat 6 love them. Sweet,
Put them in a classic vibe, they sound great. Very dynamic sounding for lack of a better way to describe them. If I ever move the vibe on I'll be keeping these for the next tele. Thanks!
Great customer service and the pickups are the clearest I have ever heard!
I installed these in a 2007 Mex Tele. Stock pickups had the old ceramic magnet at the bottom of each pickup and sounded, blah. I love watching the Dylan Talks Tone YouTube channel - learned a ton from him, and I’ve seen him winding and installing his pickups, so I thought I’d give a set a try.
I’ve been fortunate to have played a few Tele’s from the 1960’s. These pickups give me that same tone. I mostly play the Tele through a Music Man 112-RD, and these pickups sound better (to me) than the stock pickups in my 2022 American Pro II Tele.
Great job Dylan!
These pickups sound great with mid-range not normally attained with most telecaster pickups. They really round out the sound. Plus, I am probably the only one in The Finger Lakes Region with custom wound pickups. Thanks Dylan.
