Jeff Buckley Telecaster pickups

FWIW my Broadcaster bridge and Antiquity 54 neck are RWRP to each other, such that the middle position is noise cancelling but not out of phase, even though they are not a set. Both those pickups are vintage Fender designs, and Seymour usually stays pretty true to the old recipe. Fender changed it's orientation over the years, so even Fenders don't match up between 50's, 60's and later. Buckley's are much later, but the point being you might want to also be sure to identify if each pickup is top going or top coming and the orientation of the magnets to get it right.

i think that tone has a lot more to do with the amp and settings than the pup.

I bought a mirror tele pickguard too, that's definitely the key to his sound

Just kidding, but I've found a tele hot stack, coming next week, I know it's impossible to get the right sound bit it's fun toying around this.

Referring to Live at the Sin-é sound, I think 50% is amp, 30% is pickup, 10% is top loading bridge + tele, 10% hands
