Magneton Telenovela – El Cotillo Burst
The rich resonance of mahogany, combined with the smoky earthiness of P90 pickups, echoes a familiar harmony, after all, the Junior remains the best-sounding Les Paul variant. But what about Teles?
Encouraged by the fervor surrounding our previous endeavor, the crimson Telenovela with its P90s, we embarked on a new venture – crafting a Mahogany Tele infused with the distinct character of Lindy Fralin's excellent handwound P90 pickups.
Both in its visual aesthetics and tonal palette, it draws inspiration from the mesmerizing sunsets that grace the horizon of Fuerteventura’s hidden gem, El Cotillo Beach.
