I've been looking at a set of Duncan Antiquity '55 as a possible replacement set for my Fender 60's CS Relic Tele. There doesn't seem to be quite as much info on these as the regular Antiquities. Can Ant '55 users offer up their opinions? I'd also be interested in the opinions of users of other stag pole pickups and possibly how the compare. I want to retain the stagger pole look while possibly adding some girth and mids. I'd like slightly microphonic on the bridge, a bit of squeal. Aggressive and mean but with character. On the neck, I'd like full, warm and round. Maybe a tad humbuckerish. I know that may contradict the nature of these particular pickups but I'd really appreciate the help. Maybe a custom set of Don Mares? I'd really like to try the Fred Stuarts but man!! They are $$$$!
