Put my telecaster on layaway today
It's a vintage modified telecaster with a humbucker and two single coils in it. Pretty nice tone and great neck. I'm looking to replace the pickups though. One is a mini humbucker and I just really don't see many options for those. I'm thinking of putting a tone zone in the bridge and a virtual vintage heavy blues 2 in the middle. I just have no idea what to do about the neck position humbucker. I'll link you guys to a pic (if it will work)

Does your Tele look like the one in the photo? That's pretty hot. Where did you get it?

Re: Put my telecaster on layaway today
yeah it's exactly the one in the photo! I found an exact pic of it up on the web. There's a music shop around here called Opus 1 Music. They had it on sale. Its definitely gonna need a pickup change though. I'm pretty unexperienced with that.

Cool. I like that guitar.
I'm a huge fan of Seymour Duncan pickups. Go to their website http://www.seymourduncan.com/ and listen to their online samples. Let me know what you think. |
Re: Put my telecaster on layaway today
my main problem is going to be finding a mini humbucker to replace the one that's in it that don't cost 100 bucks.

Re: Put my telecaster on layaway today
Yeah, that's going to be the hard part. Do you play the neck position a lot?
|
Re: Put my telecaster on layaway today
unfortunately, yes. I am trying to get better at blues music (and I am not very good) and that requires me to play a lot of neck position.

Did you check out the Seymour Duncan mini humbucker (SM-1N) for $87? I can save you an extra 15% off. Just click this and type in GIFT123. It ends in 8 days, so hurry if you want the discount.
Let me know. :sweet: |
Re: Put my telecaster on layaway today
Btw, be advised that the stock middle and bridge are NOT singles, though they look like it.
All 3 are humbuckers. I would look at yanking the middle and bridge, and putting in a Strat middle pup and Tele bridge pup respectively, and leave the mini in the neck. I have a Seymour Duncan mini in the neck of one of my Teles (a beater Frankentele) but they are expensive. I would give the stock one a go and put singles where singles should be first. |
Re: Put my telecaster on layaway today
So just a normal strat pup and normal tele pup? Any specific model or anything? Also, I would really like to get a little more dirt out of the pups :w:
