Chopper T, Little 59 T, Red Devil T or Pearly Gates T for Telecaster bridge?

[Peter Krasov]

Looking for a rail-type pickup with moderate output for the bridge of my Tele. I don't care for vintage Tele twang, I'm looking for warm humbucker-style bridge pickup, but not over-the-top in terms of output.

These are the main candidates:

DiMarzio Chopper: https://www.dimarzio.com/pickups/rail-hum-canceling-tele/chopper-t-bridge.
Little 59 Tele: https://www.seymourduncan.com/single-product/little-59-tele.
Red Devil Tele: https://www.seymourduncan.com/single-product/red-devil-for-tele.
Pearly Gates Tele: https://www.seymourduncan.com/single-product/pearly-gates-tele.

The only pickup from this list I'm familiar with is Little 59 - and I'm ready go for it. But there are some other interesting options - newer Duncan models in particular. So which ones would you prefer and why?

I have used both the lil59 and lilpg in the same tele. The lil59 had a lot of mids and stood out, for me, when using crunchy gain to distortion. I could never get a clean tone that I liked. The lilpg sounds great clean and under all levels of gain. I also liked the more balanced eq.

I depends on what kind of music you plan on playing with the guitar. They are all great pickups.

For fantastic mids, and a great humbucker tone, I loved the Little 59.

Blues rock, classic rock, pop rock. No extreme styles with this guitar.
