I'm building a Tele Esquire with a humbucker and I'm looking for a pickup that's good for blues rock but fatter.
I need a hot, dirty, hairy humbucker but won't throw me in heavy metal or over compressed late 80's rock.
Think of playing some ZZ Top in a smoke-filled raunchy bar with bikers and gambling tables.
I've tried the 59/C but lacks some hair, Custom models just sound like a loudmouth PAF, next up to the Ant JB, the JB is the closest so far for what I'm looking for but it's just slightly too smooth.
Maybe something like a JB with some hair but not so compressed.
Any suggestions would be great.
