Bridge pickup rec needed . . .

[ddeand]

I'm building a Tele with a SD Mini-bucker in the neck slot. Any suggestions for a bridge pickup that will balance well?

Thanks,
Dean

Little 59 if you want a humbucker

Tele Hot or Tele Hot Tapped if you want a more traditional "Broadcaster" tone as well as a hotter tone.

Which mini 'bucker?

I have a SM-1 in the neck of my ash Fernandez tele and it pairs very nicely with the Jerry Donahue Lead.

In my Thinline tele I use a Hot Tele Lead with a tap in conjunction with a full sized Pearly Gates in the neck.

Both work well, but the Fernandez is better for country and R&B while the Thinline handles smokey jazz tones and rock.
