JB Jr. for Tele

[Anficht]

With the JB being the most popular HB, why is there no JB Jr. for Tele?
Was quite surprised to see this, when I just acquired my first Tele and wanted to put a JB Jr. in the bridge of it...

Any particular reason?

Especially because the JB was originally designed for Tele

The Custom Shop can make one. But my guess is that most Tele owners who like JBs just put a regular JB in there.

if my sources are correct you may, in fact, not have to wait much longer for such a product

They now need a Tele neck size Cool Rails.

Then again, with todays availability of replacement parts, (including pickguards), it's no more difficult to put a Strat sized pup in the neck of a Tele, as it is to put a humbucker in the bridge.

I wasn't completely thinking when I made the above comment. That assumes the Tele is routed for such a change. If it isn't, taking a router to your new Tele could be quite a daunting task.

Probably why I have had the parts for my Brent Mason Tele for about a decade, and haven't finished it yet.

But, funny this should come up now...

I would be first in line.

I'm intrigued by the hint at a JB for Tele... I've been contemplating a pickup change in my baritone thinline.
