I recently acquired a Squier Baritone Telecaster for a super low price with the intent to mod it a bit. I'm interested in upgrading the pickups to something more useful for harder/aggressive drop tunings. The neck is routed to accept humbuckers, but the bridge is not and I don't think I'll be routing it, etc., so that's a little limiting, as I want something hum-cancelling and wound hot, but in a Tele bridge configuration.
Currently thinking of going with Seymour Duncan Hot Rail in the bridge, with a Sentient in the neck. Basically, I want them to be (1) hum-cancelling, (2) hot, but not muddy (i.e. able to keep drop-A tuning sound tight). Also going to swap to 500k pots, if relevant.
Suggestions welcome!
