Members Fersnachi Posted October 17, 2010 Members Share Posted October 17, 2010 What options do I have without routing? I still kinda wanna keep the look however = Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Belva Posted October 17, 2010 Members Share Posted October 17, 2010 SD little '59 is an option as is GFS lil puncher. I've tried the '59 and it works as advertised. Very much like a PAF. There are many other mini 'buckers out there for Tele bridge. Do some research. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Electric Monk Posted October 17, 2010 Members Share Posted October 17, 2010 I once had a Dimarzio Air Norton T in the bridge of my Tele. It sounded really good, but I ended up going back to a normal Tele single-coil. It was good for what it did, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members craigny Posted October 17, 2010 Members Share Posted October 17, 2010 Look into a SD Hotrails for Tele or like stated above the lil JB or 59..all should fit your tele Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Karma1 Posted October 17, 2010 Members Share Posted October 17, 2010 I put a Duncan Little 59 in the bridge of my Tele and it sounds great. I installed it with a push-pull pot for series/parallel switching. I usually use it in series for high gain leads and it is fat and punchy, but I can switch to parallel if I want a bit more twang and bite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members frankie pajamas Posted October 18, 2010 Members Share Posted October 18, 2010 I've got a Chopper T in a tele of mine. Great pickup..... Description from DimarzioThe Chopper T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members xStonr Posted October 18, 2010 Members Share Posted October 18, 2010 If your Tele is a MIM, no routing is needed. If not, check out those hotrails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members lefchr Posted October 18, 2010 Members Share Posted October 18, 2010 The Lil 59 is a great sounding single size humbucker I love the one in my strat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Deadbeat Son Posted October 18, 2010 Members Share Posted October 18, 2010 The Lil 59 is a great sounding single size humbucker I love the one in my strat. I believe the Lil 59 for Tele sounds somewhat different than the Strat variant. I have the Lil 59 in my Telecaster, and it does a pretty convincing PAF tone.

There are many other mini 'buckers out there for Tele bridge. Do some research. Dig. I had the GFS in my American Tele for a few months, but it was too much output with a non-distinctive tone. Sold it off. I put a Little 59 into the bridge slot a few months ago, and holy {censored}! That is the sweetest pickup I've ever used. Very fat, tons of mids, and it tones down my Tele's insane treble response. Just such a great pickup, and it still has a slight twang when played clean. Can't recommend it enough!

Members Nephilim-777 Posted October 18, 2010 Members Share Posted October 18, 2010 Pull the bridge and look to see if you need routing. Also consider changing your volume pot if you do put a full sized hummer in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Willyguitar Posted October 18, 2010 Members Share Posted October 18, 2010 Im not in love with the Tele bridge pickup theres really nothing I can use it for...That neck however.... Most tele players feel the opposite. For me, the bridge pickup is the heart and soul... darkens up with a bit of gain, and sounds great with the tone rolled back.

Members csm Posted October 18, 2010 Members Share Posted October 18, 2010 Im wanting to put some fender vintage noiseless set in my tele vie heard they have the sustain of a humbucker! You heard wrong. They sound pretty much like a regular Tele bridge unit -- maybe minus the last coupla degrees of bite -- only without the buzzzzz or hummmmm. Hence the name 'Vintage Noiseless.'
