Enrico Ciacci (who performed on the Ennio Morricone soundtracks) & Bill Frisell use old 1950s (Gretsch & Guild) Dearmond Dynasonics pickups in their telecasters - now I do as well!! Lets discuss! 
Видеоклипы
Absolutely love the sound of that rig.
Many thanks Paul
@@TheGuitarShow This was a fantastic history, demo and explanation of these most excellent pickups.
Question, how do they sound as compared to a vintage Gibson AlNiCo VI Staple Pickup?
If I remember correctly the Gibson Staple pickups was developed because Les Paul the Man insisted on installing the Dynasonics into his then new Les Paul solid body guitars! Curious how much the shape of the pole piece magnets affect the tone, round with the DeArmond verses Rectangular Gibson Staple pickups.
It sounds awesome and it definitely suits you Sir ! I have been considering a Tele project of my own for years tbh. I change my mind a lot on the details, but basically I've come to the conclusion that I want a Strat style belly cut and the neck shape of my Les Paul . After decades playing a Gibson Marauder and the last several years of Rickenbacker ownership , I also like a Blend control . One day ....😉
Thanks so much Shaun! Keep me updated with your tele build - you gonna love it!
Had the lucky fortune of buying an old Goya thinline guild copy( model 103 ) back in the early 90's that had been set up with DeArmond "Martin" fidelitone pups. Damn,what a sound! Especially with stainless flatwounds & an added b-3 vintage Bigsby & aluminium bridge. Lost it to theft & never found another guitar that ever quite thrilled me as much. Fernandes Monterey pro player these days.
These pickups were also used in Martin F-50, 55 and 65s archtop / hollowbodies in the early '60s.
Thanks for the info bro
That's a fantastic sound. I love the versatility of teles as a modding platform. Like building an engine, you've combined great components and built a beast! I love the sound. I put a pair of humbucker sized p90s in a tele. I know they aren't true p90s but you get a neat sound. The capacitor can be essential with hotter pickups. Anyway love what you did. Great tone and great video! ✌
Many thanks Simon and yes I agree the capacitor really is neccersary on a tele!
Thank you so much! I've been thinking of installing one of these in the neck position of one of my Stratocasters, but I couldn't find samples of it on RUclips until I found yours. I think I know what to do now, because this sounds amazing!
So cool Mario - glad I could be of help
I have ‘68 Kustom that came stock with Dynasonics, great guitar. And btw, you’re a great/creative player… thanks for posting this demo of these amazing pickups!
Pleasure and nice that yoiu have those dynasonics!
Great pickups/guitar and fine playing!!
Thanks!!
Thanks bro 🎸🙏
What an absolutely stunning guitar, and wonderful playing! Now I need to look at building something like this
many thanks indeed! Let me know how you get on!
@@TheGuitarShow so what I’m actually going to do (it’s ordered lol) is a Jazzmaster style guitar from Lewis Guitars, called an Adélie). It’s going to have three of those Dynasonics, with a four way switch. Neck, neck and bridge, bridge, and off. The middle pickup will have a blue led push button that will activate the middle pickup in any position (just to make it a little quirky), mastery bridge/trem and there will also be a kill switch. It’s going to be blue, but a bit of a darker shade of blue, and the pickguard will be Daphne blue if they can make that work (Reverend guitars is doing something similar right now with their guards, which inspired me), if not, it will be white. Roasted maple neck with an Ebony board.
lol… should be something 😂
Fantastic video and so much interesting information. Really enjoy watching your channel. Cheers
Many thanks indeed 🎸🙏
I’ve owned a Gretsch with these in the past. Fantastic tones. Nice playing, too!
Thanks for watching Mark
Beautiful playing at the beginning. Very calming.
When you played that chord at 11:00 the line 'I am not in love, but I'm open to persuasion' popped into my head!
ah cool! thanks!
Fantastic sound and very informative video. Thanks a lot for sharing.
Excellent playing!
Those pkps are perfect sounding.
I have an early 2000's FENDER/De Armond. The pkps are
Terrific. Color: Deep Ruby Red. I haven't used it. I'm used to
Playing my Strat. Blessings!
Great vid. I had the DeArmond M75 T even before Fender took it over. Your P.U.'s sound great where as my 2 K's were quite harsh sounding I thought. Far brighter than a normal P90 to my memory.
Thats interesting and great to get a first hand account of those 2k pickups. Thanks🙏
Great rig you’ve got and you can play it well. . Lovely haunting sound .
Many thanks indeed Iain, 🙏🎸
Big cup! Sounding great. Thank you for sharing
Thanks Donald 🎸🙏
Fantastic tones and playing. Well done, mate.
Thanks for listening.
What gorgeous tones! Now I know what I want to do to my American Special Telecaster!
Many thanks yes you will love the result
Loved the sound of those, think I need some of them
A cool looking Tele for sure, thanks for the chat, enjoyed it.
Pleasure Sid 🙏
That tele honks. Very nice build if I seen it in a store I’d have to play it. Again, great build
Many thanks Richie and love your playing btw.
My dream tele build is finally nearing completion. I got the same white late 50’s DeArmond in the neck, but I have a flatpole from 1952 in the bridge. It’s been really fun collecting parts for the last few years to make a killer telecaster. Im having Carson Hess do the neck for me and it should be done soon. You definitely inspired the neck pickup decision.
A dynasonic in the neck will bring you to tears...the tone it amazing. Let me know how it all works out bro
@@TheGuitarShow I certainly will. Love your channel
That guitar is a beaut and sounds amazing. Your passion is inspiring mate. Thanks for sharing
Thanks so much Simon - means a lot!
That is exactly what I am aiming for 🙂 I just need to find some mounting brackets for the FilterTron.
Smashing! Love the playing and the guitar tone.
Thanks Rob
Wonderful tone! Finally i'm sure about pickups to choose
Thanks for watching
I love the sound, it sounds like a solid body Gretsch with a much brighter tone. Im gonna use this
Thanks, yes its plenty bright, nice and chimey
Wonderful playing, great sounds and very informative video…I have subscribed😊
Many thanks Paul!
Oh!! Great sound! I have long loved these PUPs!
Thanks 🙏
@@TheGuitarShow Seriously. This is such a beautiful and super cool guitar!! Real fine playing, as well! Have you considered changing out the tone pot for a stacked tone pot, to tone down the back PUP, while keeping the front PUP treble? BTW: Have long LOVED THE WHITE BOBBINS!! Neat little kinura up there on your wall, too!
They are so sparkling and clear !
I agree Graham!
Sound fantastic, my Mojentale Custom Telejet is equipped with some Gabajo "Gold Foil" pick-up made in Greece and sound fantastic... Their De Armond reissues seems killing too and because I'm a Teleguy you give me idea to built one with these.
Great video
Thanks Dale, if I've inspired you then it's all worth while ..keep me posted on your build please. Thanks, Ramon
sounds beautiful!!
Thanks 🙏🎸
Awesome sound Thnx
Pleasure Timothy
Thanks for the wire suggestion. I made a Jazzmaster pickup with Strat length magnets and twice the normal space for wire than a normal Jazzmaster. They are not far off of these Dearmonds. The 43 wire would smooth them a bit. I might try making them with 1/4” magnets after seeing these and the insides of Ric Toasters.
Pleasure and thanks for checking out the video
I have a tele with a dynasonic in the neck position. Absolutely love it. I used to own a Dearmond solid body that had dynasonics. I always regret selling it.
Yes those Dearmonds were excellent value
Just put a Gretsch Hi-lotron in the neck of my telecaster yesterday. The balance with the broadcaster bridge pickup is perfect.
It's got a lovely clear sound and happily shares a 250k pot with the bridge. It doesn't have that same dynasonic bite, but I'm really chuffed.
Very nice Ian and sorry for the late reply
Woah.. Great tone! That sounds awesome man 👍 i could play around all day on a rig like yours! 🎸🔥⚡🎶🇺🇸🔛🇬🇧
Many thanks indeed - would be a pleasure! Im sure you'd love it!
lovely sounding axe and picking
Thanks very much Steve 🙏🎸
I have those in my Black Falcon, they are old and rusty and always sound GREAT!
Lovely yes they sound so cool
I stumbled over your vid and stayed for the heavenly sounds ❤
I have Filtertrons and Dynasonics in 2 of my 3 Teles. Even my Les Paul Studio is equipped with Filtertrons.
This sound is unbeatable for my taste. Still twangy and a full sound range.
Thank you for this great demonstration.
And yes, i don't play metal with this guitars 😅
Cool demo and great sounding pickups.
many thanks
AMAZING!!! They sound as though played through multiple top notch effects!
The new 2020 dynasonics do indeed have adjustable pole pieces like the originals with a sealed back like the 2ks. They also have a grounded shield wire like the originals.
Thanks for this Ryan
Fantastic tones! Especially the neck! Thanks for sharing I might get a reproduction for the neck of my tele instead of the p90 it has.
Aw thanks man - yes I love this guitar so much!
I love this channel. You do all the things that I want to do. Like I'm always getting ideas of putting certain rarer types of pickups into guitars that have never had them in before. And so I always go on RUclips and search to see if anyone else has built a guitar like a tele or strat with these kinds of rare pickups, and invariably your channel comes up, because you have the same ideas as me, you just have the money and talent to actually do these things, unlike me lol
I really just love the idea of a tele with all sorts of types of pickups. Because it's just a big flat slab of wood. It seems like the perfect nodding platform. Even though a strat is probably easier, because all 3 pickups on a strat are where the pick guard is. So as long as you rout out the whole thing, you can fit any type of pickup in there. Whereas the tele bridge complicates things. You have to buy a new bridge to get it to work.
Hi bro = thanks so much I have a few more projects in mind regarding teles and funky old pickups - I assure you my friend, I am not rich!
Amazing quack from the bridge pickup and sublime sounds from the neck pickup.
Amazing sound,thank you.
Thanks
Filtertron bridge and dynasonic neck combo is what I'm wanting on my next build.
Nice - keep us updated!
Love that pedal steel lick at 10:28
Thanks Bernard
Just finished me 1st cuppa...
Good Morning That sounded frigging amazing
I've recently been revisiting Daniel Lupi et al
Does that one have flats?
Thanks Jonny! No round wounds on this one (11s)
Agreed, that's a great sound and I'm hoping get the same results on my 5220 Duo Jet when I swap for the Broadtrons.
nice
Sounds great. On the Fender/Guild/Dearmond guitars around the millennium, I did some research once, as I have their M75T. Apparently ... there were two types of pickup used. The first ones were called 2K and were real dynasonics; later they called them 2000 and those ones were P90s in a dynasonic casing. The way to tell them apart is that the 2Ks had ever so slightly bevelled edges on the pole pieces, while the 2000s were sheared across. I have the 2Ks and they definitely sound like yours. Not identical, of course, because no two things are the same, but they have the same signature, a kind of liquid twanginess. I know P90s, and they are nothing like those. Are you still using it, three years later?
Loving the brightness of these pickups. Might have to drop a set of reproductions into something. Perfect for an indie surf tone.
Yes I agree they're kind of the forgotten pickup in some respects which is sad as they sound so cool
And in Martin guitars. They are precursors to the Rickenbacker Toaster and the Jazzmaster pickups, altho neither of those allow for adjustment of the individual magnets. Schaller made some copies of this pickups design in the late 60's which were used in Ovations electrics.
Thanks for the info!
I've got a DeArmond starfire special with a set of 2Ks in.
Beautiful guitar
Nice one Dave had my eye on one of those for a while
@@TheGuitarShow I got it to replace the black twin humbucker one I had when we were at college.
But I ended up with a much nicer guitar.
Big fan of Dearmond pickups. I have the g5129 that is my workhorse. I’m building a partscaster and to add a dearmond pickup would be awesome. I have a white one but would prefer a black.
I like the white ones which Guild always used - Gretschs used the black ones.
@@TheGuitarShow the white ones I had were a lot more dirtier sounding. The black sound more like a single coil. I’m partial to the black for my particular tone. I tried many different pickups/guitar from p90 to lipstick to fender single coil. Nothing compares to the dearmond tone. Come to find out all the famous spaghetti westerns we’re from those pickups.
Hi so glad I stumbled across you whilst researching dysanonic pickups. I’m fitting a pair to a Jazzmaster style guitar that I’m building for someone. What was the capacitor you used? Love your tone mate 😀
Thanks David for your kind words - I put a green Dublier Cornell cap in this guitar - normal Tele spec.
Hi, I have a set of the later Dearmond 2000 pickups they are surface mount flat backs unlike the originals. I was thinking of getting them fitted to a Fender Blacktop Telecaster. I'm hoping that they fit the humbucker routes. I do have a 50s original bridge pickup and I am looking for a neck now.
nice! Im sure you will like them - the originals sound different but Im sure you will like both types.
This is how a pickup demo should be done.
Beautiful, lucid sounds from the neck pickup. I'm personally not as much a fan of the bright bridge pickup, but you have demo'd exactly how it would be used.
Thanks
Man, now that is Chime City. Lovely tones and playing. What type of bridge/pickup ring are you using for the bridge pickup? Thanks for posting.
You mean what pickup? Thanks and sorry for the delayed response.
Been my favorite pick up tone since I really dug into tone about 15 plus years ago .
Mine too!
43 gauge wire has more resistance i think and those pickups are wound close to Gibson pickups specs. That would explain why they sound clear and bright because of less wire needed on the bobbin to get to the same DC resistance. I may be wrong about that though. Less winds means less output and less crunch, but less capacitance too.
You sound right to me thanks Ben
I've recently acquired a DC Junior (w/ the one P90) and I'm going: 'hmm these bass strings are oddly DEAD' and then realized it's got them bloody flats and/but out of deference to you I'm keeping 'em for now plus I'm thinking maybe this would be a good time to set me flat pick down
Yes Flats are awesome, i like round wounds as well both equally... Just realised I didnt use a pick in this video lol
Misery loves company 😞 I had the same situation on my Gretsch and me, being a huge Beatles fan, I kept the flats as long as I could stand it. Then gave in. Round d' rounds much better 😁
@@CaptainCraigKWMRZ I've never tried flat wounds on a guitar, but i have on 2 Hofner violin basses. One was a copy and the other was vintage player grade instrument. I love them on bass. I am also a huge Beatles fan and i don't think i would be able to use flat wounds very long either. It would be cool to play a guitar with some of these Dynasonic pickups for sure. A Duo Jet would be epic, like George H.
Fender made the Tele-Sonic in the early 00s with factory Dearmonds. It's the guitar on the poster for the remake of "Freaky Friday" with Jamie Curtis. Darn near bought one.
Thanks for the info Rich - I agree they look cool
My band mate has a Tele-sonic and it sounds gorgeous.
I had a Tele with a TV Jones and a WideRange that sounded great. I had to part from it as it weighed quite a bit with its Bigsby… but it was a fine guitar. Can’t keep’em all, can you ? Cheers Ramon ! 🎸👋🏻
Thats cool to know Rene - when you say widerange do you mean like the Tele thinlines had in the early 70s?
The Guitar Show Yes: it was an original pickup from 1977 with CuNiFe polepieces. The pickup alone was worth 2/3 of the whole guitar ! 😄
@@frantisca wow they are rare now even the Fender repros dont sound right
The Guitar Show Yep… it was a really nice guit, but too heavy. A bit like a 70’s Les Paul
What a wicked game you play.
Thanks
I totally dig it. I accidentally purchased a Duo Jet '57 Reissue and it came with the Dynasonic single coil pick ups and I was kinda mad at first until I looked the price difference between the guitar I got and the one I thought I was getting. LOL $2500 difference (shows the shell game that mark up really is) lol. But it did;t take long to fall in love with these pickups. And you gave me a lot of info that backs up what I thought all along. They are my favorite pickups. Do you think the adjustable magnets have a lot to do with the sound. It must they are so much longer. P-90's are nice but not quite the same. Anyway, I like your Tele and your style. Be well....
Can someone please provide dimensions for the pickguard rout and the depth these need?
Beautiful! I know you mentioned Frisells's guitar as an inspiration, but does your guitar have a short scale neck as well? Thanks for the amazing content btw!
Thanks Bernardo - no, mine is normal Fender scale.
@@TheGuitarShowawesome. thanks for taking the time to answer :)
They were also used in Martin hollow body electric guitars in the early to mid 1960s. The cover was slightly different.
Thanks Johnny
I have put APC US-microphons passive on my two Strats and on my fretless Prec. Bass and it´s so powerful. Anyone else who have this experience? I lust LOVE them! XD
Hi
I built basically the same guitar in 2015!..I used it extensively on THE MEMPHIS SUNS album you can hear it on Spotify...Show case it on track "THE ALIKAT"...cheers Frank love that Telecaster
Thanks Frank I shall definitely check that out as I love this combination. Happy New year
I've been after that spaghetti recipe for ages. Always thought Id have to get an old jazz master or vintage gretsch (all the cool indie kids have inflated the prices),...dodged that bullet then. cheers for the knowledge man.
Pleasure I really hope this helps you - yeah I don't have the dough for one of those beautiful old Gretschs.
except the "knowledge" isn't quite accurate. you didn't dodge any bullet. first of all, let's talk about enrico ciacci. there is, to this day, debate about who actually played on those morricone western soundtracks with at least four different italian guitarists arguing over who played what on those sessions. we don't even actually know who played on them, so imagining which guitar an unknown individual performed with is even more of a stretch. assuming it was enrico ciacci, he most certainly did not use a tele modified with dearmonds. this guitar came way later. to imagine otherwise is nothing more than conjecture and fantasy. early '60s era photographs and videos of ciacci mostly depict him playing a stratocaster. you can also find images of him playing gretsch, gibson, eko, burns, etc. allesandro allesandroni, another one of the guitarists who allegedly played on these tracks, also used a strat during that period. some of the most twangy, spaghetti western-esque riffs you've ever heard, period, were recorded using a fender stratocaster, in fact. hank marvin, james calvin wilsey, dick dale, the ventures....strat, strat, strat. but really, any of these guitars will make this sound. it's more a function of how you play and the right amplifier tone and effects (reverb/echo) than the instrument you are using. hell, even a gibson flying v will do spaghetti western. just listen to wall of voodoo's version of "ring of fire". the king of kings of all spaghetti western tones is the james bond theme, right? well that was played on an old archtop with a funky dearmond rhythm chief 1000 "monkey on a stick" clamp-on pickup! so gretsch will do it (duane eddy), jazzmaster will do it (though a strat is a more versatile sound), a jaguar is also good choice, so is a stock telecaster, dearmond 2000 pickups are great as well. link wray used a firebird, a yamaha, a danelectro...so you see, the guitar just doesn't matter. there is no spaghetti western guitar. the sound is based on composition, style, and production.
i love to play Dynas in the middle position. I have a vintage '60s set and a modern set of 2ks and I love both. The 2Ks sound very close to the old ones and nothing like a P90 IMO :) There are two versions of the 90s ones and one is much closer than the other. You can't body mount the modern ones and they still have the tall metal cases so would need to be routed on a Tele.
2000s is the right model name; Dynasonic is a Gretsch designation only. Structurally they are totally different to a P90. More like a fat Strat pickup.
I enjoyed your playing.
Many thanks for the great comment thank you 🙏
@@TheGuitarShow sorry, all got a bit garbled.
Gary Donague wrote a good summary on the different types of 2000s a.k.a. Dynasonics. I can't post a link.but people should look for "Identifying DeArmond 200, 2000, and 2K Pickups"
As someone who owns all three, I like the vintage and the modern 2000s - the same as are currently sold on the Guild site. The intermediary 2K model is quite a good pickup but doesn't sound much like the original. All would require some routing except on a hollowbody.
Hi Goose, love your TELE wiht Dynasonic pups, hoping to have my OFFSET guitar with DYnas on Neck, could you provide some measurements how you were able to properly make the ROUTE for the Pups in a solid body guitar, appreciate it mam, love your guitar skills btw ^_^
Great info thanks..:))

Killer tone my guy
Many thanks indeed Chuck
Hepcat pickups (Paris) makes replicas of these also, very good pickups, I have some J bass and guitar models; they do vintage type only, handwound, all sound great. Your tele sounds really nice.
Ill check out Hepcat - thanks for the tip! Thanks for watching my friend!
amazing fingers, I love dearmonds btw
Thanks so much
@@TheGuitarShow The right hand with the left > true art
@@tone9930 🙏🙏🙏🎸
43g wire will have a higher reading than 42g wire for the same "output"- a pickup wound with 43g wire reading 7k will be the same as one wound with 42g wire in the high 5k. The 43g will have more of a (high) mid focus and be more compressed. I don't know where you are getting your info that the de armonds were wound with 43g; many modern day winders go with 42g (personally I would go with 42g as I like the most "open" sounding pickup I can find).
Hi I read this in the guitar player American magazine they did a feature on these a pickups a few years back but Ill ask Marc at mojo pickups he should be able to let me know
woooow dude what you playin' @11:00 is absolutely amazing ...kinda beyond this world 💎
i've discovered an incredible musician N really good "tekkish guy" 4 kustom build 🏅
actually i had the same experience than you with a custom LP semi hollow Dark Blue finish flamed mapple all fine tuned by myself during 3 yr ..........i put a P90 4 neck PU & a Firebird mini HB 4 bridge with a very mini switch 2 control the FB (HB/SC/SC in //) ....with the P90 it's toll' killa ^^ when i use the position with the 3 SC in //, i have an incredible tone with a sort of phasing effect ......a so jazzy fusion toonzZ !!! ..........that's actually so true that it feels so great to have a special instrument well thought by you after extensive researches N experimentations
Bought some Gretsch Dynas for a future build. What value Dublier do you have in that Tele?
Let me check bro
Love this video - I know it's an oldie, but what is that bridge/saddle assembly and who makes it? I'm looking for something for a Tele Deluxe modification and that would be perfect! If anyone knows can you drop me a note?
Ramon, Are you sure about the pickups resistance readings you stated? You said "about 7.0-7.5k" ohms. I ask because I've read that vintage Dynasonics had readings in the range 8k - 12k.
yes Ill check again but I'm pretty sure that's correct
I'm an armature, but isn't there a modern easy to find affordable equivalent of this pickup? You would think someone is able to wind these? Are they wound with unicorn hair? Great video!
Hi yes there are lots of cheaper repros of these just google dynasonics and you should find varients by various makers. The originals are pretty special!
TV Jones T'Armonds. Unlike many other pickups these are quite complicated to build hence the reason you don't see many pickup builders attempting them
Hi . Great sounding guitar. Would you say your neck pickup would be good for a nice mellow jazz tone with the tone rolled off?? I like playing rockabilly and a bit of mellow jazz.
I don't see why it wouldn't sound good, always worth a try yeah? I think it would sound nice.. Just my 2 cents worth here, im no professional though.
In my opinion - yes 100% definately

There are six DeArmonds in my house. Three in my 1967 H59 Rocket III, two in my 1963 H17 Silhouette and one 210 sound hole pickup. Ever play any old Harmonys, Ramon?
Yes I love old harmonys my good friend Justin Adams uses one with Robert Plants.. Sounds killer!!
@@TheGuitarShow Checked out Justin Adams with Plant. Wow, big old H75. Same model Dan Auerbach uses with The Black Keys.
