Title: T-Style Partscaster Suggestions
Post by: crazedfandango on September 04, 2026, 02:32:18 PM
Hi all
 pickups that still sound
I'm looking at some pickups for a pine-body partscaster I'm building.

I have `a few' telecaster-style guitars already, some with SC, some with HBs; so I'm looking at some SC tele pickups that resemble a tele, but a little less polite whilst still retaining the tele twang. 

I am looking at the Flat 50s and the Yardbirds.  Looking at the tone charts they are similar with the 50s having a little extra output.  Or perhaps a hybrid of the 2.

Thoughts, comments, brickbats...
