Fresh Thinking from Mojo: New Pickup Formats

When most people think “gold foil,” they picture a vintage Teisco or Harmony pickup - something odd-shaped and delicate, stuck into a student guitar from the 60s. Mojo flips that idea on its head with a fresh lineup of Gold Foil pickups and an original Telecaster bridge design, all built to fit modern formats and real-world use.

These aren’t reissues - they’re original designs. And they make sense.

TL90: A P-90-Style Telecaster Pickup Upgrade

The TL90 is Mojo’s own design - a P-90-style pickup built to drop into a standard Tele bridge route. It uses angled rod magnets and a steel baseplate to deliver fatter mids, smoother highs, and a bit more punch than a standard Tele bridge pickup. It’s a smart option if you're after a Telecaster pickup upgrade that adds depth and character without changing your hardware or routing the guitar.

Strat-Sized Gold Foil

Want a Gold Foil pickup in your Strat without routing or hacking a pickguard? This is it. Mojo’s Strat-Sized Gold Foil fits perfectly in a Strat single coil slot. It’s voiced for clarity and chime, but with the spongy compression and bloom Gold Foils are known for. No shrill highs, no hum, no loss of dynamics.

Strat-Sized Gold Foil - Tele Bridge Mount

Same pickup as above, but mounted to fit a standard Tele bridge. This gives you a Gold Foil tone in a Telecaster without losing the bridge plate or doing any mods. It blends the foil’s harmonic sag with the bite and twang of a Tele. A great match for any traditional Tele neck pickup - or go full character with a matching foil.

Tele-Sized Gold Foil - Tele Neck Mount

A Gold Foil that actually fits under a standard Tele neck pickup cover. No cutting, no routing. Like the others, it’s built from scratch — not a mini-humbucker or Strat coil in disguise. Big and open-sounding, with more clarity and sparkle than most standard Tele neck pickups. It’s an easy Telecaster pickup upgrade that keeps the look but shifts the sound.
