What is the best Tele bridge pickup for rock and blues? This includes Fender, Dimarzio, Seymour Duncan, and any other brand.

I just soupped up a Hwy1 with Setmour Duncan's Hot Rails in the bridge, a Quarter Pounder in the neck, and a total rewire. It's realy not much of a tele any more though. It's kinda like tele with a major kick in the pants. My telemonster. I tried to keep somewhat of a tele sound but..............
But I did just get a new tele to replace the one I supercharged. So to get this ramble under control. I realy like the Seymour Duncan's quite a bit but, there is nothing like a stock tele spank. Peace. J.J.B.

My fav is the Broadcaster bridge pickup in the Baja Tele.

I installed a Lollar Alnico 3 in a client's guitar and it sounded great. :wink:

Very responsive to pick attack though. Depending on your playing and technique this can be good or not so good.

That's cool. I just bought that one and the STR-1 that goes with it on eBay. Should be here some time next week.
