Antiquity pickup for tele recommendation needed

[Laurent Lafaye]

Hello everybody,

I've just buy antiquity I for neck position for my telecaster (ref 11024-21).

I'm looking for a bridge position now.
Could you tell me if I can combine it with Antiquity I for 1955 bridge tele (ref 11024-27) or if it's better to use it the same type (11024-22).

Thanks very much for your answers,

Will work just fine with either solution. Choose the one that fit´s your tonal needs better

Zerb's right. I like the flat poled Antiquity I best...but the raised pole '55 is brighter.

Roy Buchanan's Tele (a '53) has flat pole bridge pickup...skightly fatter tone with skightly more mids.

Jimmy Page's Tele (a '59?) and Jame's Burton's original Tele have the raised pole pickup...thinner, brighter, twangier tone. A little more of a steely country tone.
