Re: First Tele, need help!
Jerry Donahue will pair nicely with the neck seth humbucker.
Drop the greasebucket and go with standard wiring...but...use 500k pots and add a 470k ohm resistor for the bridge pickup, so it sees 250k at the volume.
Brass barrels for sure, or simply drop in either a gotoh intonated vintage style bridge for old skool tele twang, or a joe barden intonated bridge for a slightly meatier, more sustaining sound. Both will be an improvement.
You will have 3 killer sounds and people will comment on how good your tone is at gigs.
