Love these pickups!
I have been using the bridge pickup a lot for the past few weeks. Really love the tone, and exactly what I wanted.

Fantastic pickup
This pickup transformed my T style guitar. The bridge position now produces those unmistakable Texas blues tones from Albert Collins to Billy Gibbons. If you’re looking for a slightly hotter bridge pickup but want to retain the classic tele tones, this pickup is for you!
