Bridge Pickup for Squier Tele

[markstan]

Howdy;

I recently purchased the Squier Cabronita Tele with Bigsby and really like the guitar except for the bridge pickup.
I would like to replace it with either the Antiquity or the ST59-1 and was wondering if anyone has an opinion on this or
suggestion for an alternative.
I like the Fidelitron in the neck, but am not against replacing it if either of these two pickups won't work well with it.

Thanks - Mark

Er, on the Squier Cab Tele, the Fidelitron is the neck/rhythm pickup.

I suggest the STL-1b Broadcaster style replacement bridge/treble pickup. If you are concerned about hum and RF interference, the STK-3Tb should answer the brief. It would also match up nicely with the Squier fingerboard radius.

Got it....I meant neck not bridge for the Fidelitron.
I had checked out (listened to the demo) of the STL-1b on the web site and was one of the contenders.
I'll add it to the list.

I second this notion. Also, Tom Anderson makes a great hot Tele bridge single. I want to try it with an added base plate.
