Hi all! I´m making a fat tele, and would like to put a neck humbucker that will sound as a jazzmaster, my doubt is wich one would be closer, an alnico II pro or maybe a jazz? Wich bridge single coil (looking for something really warm)would match better? I´m trying to do something like a reverse blacktop jazzmaster, like a experiment. Thank you!

Re: jazzmaster sounding humbucker
Jazz should give clarity due to relaxed mids, while the Alnico Pro 2 would sound warmer due to greater mids than the Jazz. Not sure that either would sound like a Jazzmaster pickup, however. Once you pick a neck humbucker then choose a bridge single...but my first thoughts for warm pickup would be something like a Broadcaster.
