    Default I'm in need of a humbucker...

    ...in a single coil size! It needs to be a Strat pickup, but it's going in a Telecaster.

    I want something fat and warm with a fair bit of bite, but not getting in to metal territory! I've been looking at the Duncan JB Jr and the Duncan Hot Rails. I'm not sure, so I'd quite like some suggestions!

    Thanks.

    I don't recall if they have what you are looking for, but also check DiMarzio. I had to get pick ups for replacing P90's and they had a nice replacement that I ended up getting.

    I've had a look at DiMarzio's Pickup Picker, and it spat out a Super Distortion. But I've always had the impression that DiMarzio's are for super-rockers who like headbanging lol.

    BTW, I'm probably going to be putting Suhr V60LPs in the Neck and Middle positions.

    Hmm, well I sure don't fit that description, except when I can't achieve a lesson - then I do some headbanging of a different sort.

    Let us know what you decide to get.

    Bwahaha, that's funny.

    I'll definitely let you know. The guitar my guitar is modelled off has V60LPs and a Duncan Hot Rails in the bridge.
