Dimarzio competition (breed vs. ?)

[wfranklin]

I'm currently looking into buying a new bridge humbucker for my alder bodied tele, and I was wondering what Seymour Duncan pickup is comparable to the Dimarzio Breed? The sound I'm after is very fat, creamy, harmonically rich, dynamic, and most of all, natural. I don't want a pickup that doesn't let the sound of my guitar through, I want it to enhance the above features.

+1 on that. dimarzio sounds like dimarzio. i wish duncan did make a couple of those kinds of pups, like the dp160 norton, but they have some great stuff of their own

It won't sound like the Breed, but since you said "very fat, creamy, harmonically rich, dynamic, and most of all, natural"... then check out the Custom Custom

Exactly what I was thinking.
