wanting to buy PUPs

[eremiahjsu]

hey everyone.

i wanna buy a good single coil humbucker for my tele. i dont like the thin sound, i like a fat warm thick sound.

any suggestions as to what pups are good?

i wanna change both my neck and bridge pups.

idk about everyone else, but id say go for the classic combo...

tone zone(b) and air norton

you could consider those stacked single coils. or use a humbucker equipped guitar

 

[remy]

You're talking about a S-H combination or S-S? or just one single coil?

I got confused over your "i wanna buy a good single coil humbucker for my tele." statement.

i have those for my strat..
i also facing the same prob..i need a stacked humbucker..
heard those from dimarzio were good..any recommendations?cos i still wan that twang sound..

 

[Ratboy]

personally ....

i feel

humbucker / fat warm thick sound ≠ twangy sound

I feel they cannot co-exist
its like wanting a hot cup of milo peng : )


there might be a fat warm thick twangy sound
hope i know it when i hear it

Buy my dimarzio virtual vintage 54. Gives u the fat, warm, dark sweet sound of the 50s strat. lol.

hmm since we are one the topic of a tele pup replacement.
Try lindy fralins. The blues specials are their top sellers from what i have gathered.
I am about to purchase a set soon, that is when tymusic replies me =x
the SD hot rails for tele are pretty good too. All the output and fat tone ull ever need. Though its only for the bridge.

hmmmm.. i dont quite like my twangy sound on my tele. i like my body, definitely, but i wanna go with that nice...thick sound. like...nu metalish, incubus, kinda sound. twangy is good, if you're playing old school stuff i guess.

so hot rails?
