Humbucker pickup for Telecaster?
« on: January 11, 2011, 03:08:49 AM »
Hi, im looking for a bit of input on a bridge pickup for my 72 telecaster which im replacing the pickups on. Im looking for a bit of versatility when it comes to it. I am however a sucker for a good "chugging" pickup which is why I was thinking miracle man. orginally I was going for a miracle man bridge but i fear that it may be too bright in my guitar (alder body/maple neck) can anyone vouch for a miracleman in alder? or suggest any other pickup? Thanks!

Black Dog is an option. Strongs mids, not too bright and it can do metal too. It's tigth for an alnico-pu. The Miracle Man is a great pu, but in my eyes a sort of onetrickpony and could be on the bright side for your guitar.
