A while back I bought a pair of 59's which have been ok by I'm thinking of changing them. I was considering a pair of Blues but the description says they are 59's which are wound differently. Is there a big difference in their sound? I play in a Motown/60s Soul group. Open to other suggestions.

Re: 59's vs Blues
I had Seymour Duncan Antiquity humbuckers which sound sorta similiar to Tele pickups so i would recommend them.
I played in a Soul/Funk cover band and even though i used a Les Paul, it needed to sound like a Tele, so bright twangy Humbuckers are what's needed, playing in the middle position.

Re: 59's vs Blues
To me the Vintage Blues set, '59's, would fit the name much better if there was an UOA5 in the bridge & an A4 in the neck. That would be a great set.
Ant's don't really sound like Tele PU's, nor do they sound as good to me as Seth's. Ant's have aged (degaussed) A2's which gives them a weaker sound.
