I recently bought and installed a Twisted Telecaster neck Pickup from a reputable guitar store. The pickup is amazing!!!

Currently, I run the neck pickup with the stock bridge pickup of my 2013 52' RI telecaster. When I first installed the pickup, the middle position was out of phase, then I reversed the ground and lead wires and everything was OK.

Question, which Fender bridge pickup will be in phase with the Twisted Tele neck? Matching hot leads... From my understanding, with the proper bridge pickup, I can achieve hum canceling in the middle position. Does anyone know, if the NO-Caster bridge will work?

Hi,

Im fairly certain that the Fender Custom Shop Pairs these with a Twisted Tele Bridge PU, which is a new design and VERY hard to get as a single PU (at the moment)... as I have tried...
But, before this PU was designed, Fender CS used the FCS Broadcaster PU to great effect...

I have been wanting to do this to mine for a while now but i'll probably wait until I can get the twisted tele PU's as a pair...

With regards to the PU's being in phase...
With your change....they are...and indeed should hum-cancel in the middle position now.
Or...
Do you just mean matching hot and ground wire cover material...( as we all know thats not important right?....hehe)...

As again, Im pretty sure that the only PU's that would be considered 'a pair' (and would 'match')... and/or would have been made with the other in mind... would be the new Twisted tele Bridge PU.

Yes, Its pretty frustrating... but, im sure in the not to distant future you will be able to get hold of the PU's that WE ALL WANT..... Pretty please Fender....lol..

Maybe some other members have more info on the release of these and could shed some more light?....

Good luck and im with ya when Fender sort it out..... :roll:

Best.
P.

The 52' RI bridge pickup and twisted neck are not hum canceling in the middle position. Although, it does sound really good.

I also like the CS Nocaster bridge PU, really awesome bridge. I was just curious if anybody had paired the Nocaster bridge with the Twisted neck, if so what were there result's? Is the Nocaster bridge and the Twisted neck combo, hum canceling? Does anyone know? I would rather not pull the 52' out, if this is not the case.
