A neurostimulation stimulation lead and method of fabrication are provided. First and second electrode sets include segmented electrodes joined with linking portions, bodies having a mandrel lumen, and a wire retention fixture. The second electrode set includes a wire pass through channel. The mandrel lumens, wire retention fixtures and wire pass through channel are monolithically formed in the corresponding bodies. The first and second wire filers are directly seated into the corresponding wire retention fixtures, such that the wire retention fixtures frictionally secure and retain the first and second wire filers. The first and second electrode sets are arranged in line with one another such that an intermediate portion of the first wire filer extends through the wire pass through channel in the second electrode set. The method removes the linking portions of the first and second electrode sets to unlink the segmented electrodes.
