i have a tele and im planning to get either one of those pickups. They are both very hot and thats just what I need. But I also want to have an option of having the single coil tele twang. is it possible to coil tap these pickups? Im leaning towards getting the hot rails.

Re: Coil Tap on Hot Rails/Lil' 59?
yes......you can tap either, although with my experience with a split single coil sized bucker was a fairly weak and possibly useful tone, but not great
althought that was a lil 59, a hot rails probably has more oomph when split because its just simply hotter than the lil 59http://www.myspace.com/wildcatdotdotdot

I like the cool rails and hot rails split. The cool rails are especially good in the neck or middle. I have a split on my lil 59 too, and it's not a bad tone at all. It's different than a regular single coil but not in a bad way. I like to combine my lil 59 and cool rails when split for a nice strat quack tone

oh, well i was assuming it is in the bridge position? if it was a hot rails or lil 59 in the neck split.....it would be plenty usuable....... i just have played a lil 59 in the bridge split, and it was kinda tiny and not too great of a tone......http://www.myspace.com/wildcatdotdotdot

I was saw this Tele on ebay, it was an Esquire(one pickup). And it had like the 3 way control switch, but one of the option was a sort of sound boast(like for solos). anyone know what im talking about?
