These are lethal pickups (default in the Warzone 2) not because they out-perform everything else out there (that's a very unschooled perspective) but because they are the right pickups for this guitar. You'd hear great bottom end from the bridge Tesla UNO Custom despite the guitar featuring a Floyd Rose bridge which is traditionally touted to hamper bass responses. The neck counterpart possesses that great zing in clean mode, lots of warmth as well. You'd get to hear that smooth distorted notes of yours during solos. I wish TESLA could just make them available to us as regular production models.
UNO hiding dirty secrets in its control cavity? Not according to the above pic- spick & span. Alpha pots used so you know UNO means business.

in ur opinion, those tesla customs sound equivalent (sort of) what tesla series/model?
i see a mylar capacitor, not ceramic xD
whatever it is, i prefer an orange :-)
i think these are similar to VR-Nitros?,. which is my fave pup model of tesla.. id choose nitro over opus..
Shielded and tidy wiring.Like
Saw this guitar just now at Mike's. Have not demo it yet. By the picture of the pot cavity, Uno really means business, they actually carbon painted it for noise shielding. You can only see this in Prestige guitars.
That's not an exclusive Prestige treatment- LTD does that for their guitars, Jackson as well & they are not upper tier models.
If you're lucky enough, lower range guitar 90% are not shielded including some higher end. So if UNO does that than they are serious in the business. Demoed it last week in SV, i don't really like the neck feeling. I went to citymusic and demoed the Charvel dx1 fr and love the compund radius neck and the EMGs and i don't believe it because it made China.
i always believe in securing the pickups first, cavity shielding is secondary :-)
i used to dislike gloss-finished necks, it just feels 'wrong', he he... but these days, it's about asking myself if the instrument makes me play well, how they are finished doesn't matter much.
i just think we shouldn't be 'amazed' by chinese instruments, it's like relegating them as second place only to acknowledge their goodness later when they really proved their worth.
Like u it's about the feel and how u react with the guitar, made in china or not i fall in love with it and bought the chinese charvel. It's my opinion but i think it beats my lbanez prestige in the neck, i just love that compound radius neck and the low profile setup.
+1 to ignoring where it's made. despite being more educated, today's players are still too affected if it's made elsewhere but USA/Japan.
Do you also make reviews on citymusic products too sub?
the City Music stuff do get appraised from time to time :-)
