Hi all,

I'm thinking of getting a Weskley T-Style Telecaster copy:

http://www.wesleyguitars.co.uk/Items/%6 ... C%20GUITAR

Come in a natural alder finish.

I don't have a Fender Telecaster yet, but I do own other fenders, but in principle, how would it sound with a pair of dimarzio single space humbuckers and some 500k pots? Also a coil tap switch so I can use the humbuckers as single coils?

I would probably do the welding myself and remove the bridge for the pickup change

Thanks

The one thing I'd suggest is to get a bridge pickup designed for a tele the 3 screw pattern is specific only to Tele's The neck pickup is not as critical but a tele neck pu is smaller than a strat and will require at least enlarging the pickguard and possiby the body. The stacked humbuckers to a good job at keeping this work to a minimum. You can get a pickguard to fit a regular or mini humbucker fairly easy but finding one to fit a strat sized neck pickup is a little more rare. Good luck and keep us posted 8)
