    Dude. I have a Godin Radium tele with humbuckers and a 24-3/4 scale and I love it’s diversity. It bridges a tele twang with a les Paul sound. It’s versatile for many styles. I find most folks who try a tele with humbuckers like them. Granted single coils provide their own magic. It depends on what you want to do.

    You should put a push pull pot in there to engage the neck pickup, that way you can have the versatility the hyper switch would offer without actually having the hyper switch.

    I have a thinline i put humbuckers in and I love it. I went with a rail(with brass plate) in the bridge and it still has PLENTY of tele twang whether in single or humbucker mode.
    In the neck I stuck in a full sized PAF clone, but I regretted it. I would have gone with a P90 instead, it is the best sounding neck pickup ever in my opinion.

    It's a little late now, but you could have used the Hyperswitch and kept the control plate too by simply cutting a custom pickguard that comes further down the sides of the control plate to around the first pot position. A modded Tele Deluxe pickguard is another option.

  • @wrayven
    @wrayven Před rokem +1

    A Firebird type pickup is magical in the neck position of a Tele or Strat. They sound like a pissed off Strat pickup with more bass & mids. Another cool option is a Filtertron. Does the American Pro II Telecaster come with body routed for 3 pickups?

  • @saddle8bag
    @saddle8bag Před rokem +1

    I did a similar thing with my Tele, only I used DiMarzio. I put the Tele pup in the middle. Used some single coil humbucker sized thing they were selling in the neck. Not very happy with that. Kinda sterile sounding. Your neck pup sounds much better than mine. Thing I always wonder is why Fender never makes one of these with a Strat neck pup. Everyone loves the neck pup in a Strat, but I've never seen Fender put one in a Tele. Seems kinda obvious.
    The middle & bridge sound good together. Very Straty on both yours and mine. I play the Sweet Home riff to judge sufficient quack, but yours sounded quacky too.

  • @ElDami
    @ElDami Před rokem

    Amazing mod! I once saw in one of your videos that when putting a humbucker on a tele's neck you recommended bypassing the tone control for that pickup, because even when fully cranked it still loses some top end. Did you fit this one in that way? Great video! Thanks

    @sheumack Před rokem

    I have one of each - HS and SS telecaster... with the poles on the Humbucker towards the bridge because that's how Keef did it. I don't actually like the standard wiring on a Nashville. I want the ability to get the classic tele Bridge and Neck. If I want mid/bridge or mid/neck I'll play a strat. But like everything, that's just it's personal preference. Like I also think Mystic surf green is one of the best colours to come out of Fender for a while.

    Good videos! I have a question for you. I have a telecaster bridge pickup that I'm trying to wire in reverse so that it will work with my 3 pickup Nashville. It's out of phase with the others if I wire it normally. The problem is, it won't work, it has zero output when wired with hot to ground. My question is, is the metal base plate normally connected to the ground wire. It's got to be shorting out somewhere and I'm suspecting it's because of the metal plate. which certainly makes contact with the bridge tray through the 3 screws. Also, if that's the issue, can the plate be separated from ground, and the pickup still work properly? Thanks

  • @tomstern9498
    @tomstern9498 Před rokem

    Everything fine and versatile and according to 60cycle hum - this neckhumbucker seems to me a real good option. But finally the bridge - and only the bridge kicks in an there it is: the great ball of fire - so no bashing but for me a 3. PU in a Telly seams to a bit like a third wheel on a Harley.

    @donald-parker Před rokem

    Too bad about the hyper switch. Surely there are options. Like route the body so it fits and use a thinline tele pickguard. Or even a strat pickguard. Or buy or make a control plate cover a little wider. I'm no expert but it just seems like there should be a reasonable way to overcome this. BTW - you might want to contact Seymore DUncan to see if they have any plans for a slim version. They are missing a significant potential market.

  • @waynegram8907
    @waynegram8907 Před rokem +2

    DYLAN, I can't believe you didn't use a "toneshaper circuit". You can't mix and match humbuckers, MiniHumbuckers with single coils without using a toneshaper circuit. That telecaster needs a Special Dylan talks toneshaper circuit customized by Dylan to Balance out the volume levels and tone. When you switch to the minihumbucker with a single coil the AC voltage level should be the same as when you switch to just the minihumbucker by it self as well as when you switch to the single coil by it self. There is no way those pickups are balanced in all pickup combinations.

    The neck pickup isnt terribly important to the Telecaster sound, so a firebird or P90 are fine. You have to have the traditional bridge lap steel style pickup tonstill be a Telecaster to me.
    A five way switch or Nashville pickup setup defeats the simplicity of the T style guitar to me. Just get a Strat body for that

    Maybe the question is wrong, or maybe the definition is wrong, when you say telecaster are you speaking of the typical sound or are you talking about the shape? I would say if the first thing is the tone, then no, not a hum-bucker, but if you’re just talking the shape, then it should get whatever pick ups and whatever town do you want
