A great option for humbucker players

Listen, I love my Teles. But I'm not what I'd call your typical Telecaster player. There's something about the aesthetic that I truly enjoy, and tonally I've heard them used with incredible effectiveness for ambient guitar work, and even as a means of floating a hook. But if I'm honest with myself, the icepick highs from a Tele bridge pickup just don't suit my style of playing.

I'm not shy about taking a router to my guitar bodies, but I did want to avoid the considerable investment of all new hardware at the bridge position. And I want my guitar to sound more like a PAF. The Little 59 does exactly that. I got the quack and roundness of a humbucker without needing to overhaul the entire bridge.

It doesn't have the output of a full size humbucker, as you might expect. But it's close. And it does what I need it to do. I'd keep an eye out for them used, since you can get a large variety of pickups from foreign manufacturers for literally a tenth of the cost. But I went with the Little 59 because I could do research, read reviews, and it was more of a known quantity. I'm pleased with my purchase.Read full review...

Big sound small package

Great addition to my Telecaster, I still have all the warm single coil godness from the neck pickup but with this in the bridge my Player Telecaster really came to life as an all-around blues beast.

Beefy and twangy! Love it!

Amazing tone. Just like SD says, a hybrid in twang tone and beefy humbucker power (focused more on beef). I got it, installed in a thinline with a SHN1 pup in the neck, with a 4way switch and a push pull with dual coil split (both pups). Bad*SS axe! Read full review...

Looks fine.

I don't know if the item works as I'm in the process of building the guitar it will go into.

Gives Tele's a bit fuller tone

Nicely adds a bit of guts to your Tele but without totally changing the tone of the instrument-
