New guy here.
I have a 1993 Fender American Standard Telecaster fitted with Gold Lace Sensors.
The sensors are OK, but I've had them for 15-plus years, and I'm a little bored with them, the bridge pickup in particular. The bridge unit can get a little icepicky. I don't really play a lot of traditional "Telecaster" stuff on my Tele -- mainly I play blues, classic rock, some jazz (mostly on the neck pickup). I'm not a country player.
I'm considering Little 59 bridge humbucker. I want more power and versatility, but at the same time, I don't want to completely lose the "Telecasterishness," the fundamental Tele character of the guitar.
Would the Little 59, wired even in series, completely transform the guitar? Would it still be recognizable as a Telecaster?
Thoughts, opinions, warnings, threats, etc., are welcome. Thanks.
Tom
