Members dysorexia Posted January 22, 2007 Members Share Posted January 22, 2007 I have a MIA telecaster in arctic white. I'm thinking of changing the pick guard either black or something else. Also I want a hotter bridge pup. Any advice for either, or just show your teles so I can get ideas. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RUExp? Posted January 22, 2007 Members Share Posted January 22, 2007 How about a mint green pickguard? Like this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Midrange Posted January 22, 2007 Members Share Posted January 22, 2007 I put a lil '59 SD pup in the bridge of mine. Sounded awesome. I was really happy with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dysorexia Posted January 22, 2007 Author Members Share Posted January 22, 2007 oh scratch that, it's not artic white it's more like butterscotch. It's a tannish color. If anyone could help me with pics I'd show it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dysorexia Posted January 22, 2007 Author Members Share Posted January 22, 2007 oops, that's the one. Blonde! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members W.A.S. Posted January 22, 2007 Members Share Posted January 22, 2007 I also really like having a lil '59 in my bridge. Makes the guitar way more versatile, I can still do a little twang-y tele stuff, clean and can go up to humbucker Judas Priest-y. I use the middle position quite a bit now, compared to pretty much never before, I didn't used the bridge too often either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vigor&kandor Posted January 22, 2007 Members Share Posted January 22, 2007 I would look at black, or a Tort PG. Also if it is 3 saddle than i would suggest brass compensated saddles for better intonation. As for the pickup I wanted to get a Rio Grande Dirty Harry for a fat single coil sound. If your thinking about a mini humbucker I have a Dimarzio Super T tele pickup for sell. if your interested PM me. When compared to a 59' i thought the dimarzio was less muddy with a more even response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Midrange Posted January 22, 2007 Members Share Posted January 22, 2007 what kind of music do you play? Kinda Alternative-ish, bluesey type of rock. I ended up using the bridge pickup a lot. Really great sounding thing. IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
