Thanks, Marnold! The pups are great! They take high gain really well, and just sound great. if you're a Jumbo fret kinda guy, you'd like the narrow jumbos on the neck. They're tall, but not quite as wide as a normal Jumbo. I like them quite a bit. In fact, it was cranking the little 7 watt Bassbreaker that convinced me that this was the guitar to get. Just for giggles, I played a $1,749 American Strat with Vintage Noiseless pups in it, and didn't like the tone at all, although it was probably one of the prettiest Strats I've ever seen. Tried a couple Les Pauls, and a 335 Studio too, and this Tele just spoke to me.

I've got a buddy that I'm going to go jam with this week that has a vintage Silverface Princeton, and 1966 Blackface Champ, along with a new Bassman. I'm excited about trying the old Champ out. I hear those can be some snarly little amphs.

Maybe I should just get the 15 watt Bassbreaker. Sheesh, talk about being in GAS vapor lock!
