Vintage style humbucker on a budget

[77stingray]

Looking for a vintage style humbucker I can put in the neck of my yamaha Pacifica tele style guitar

Similar to Andy summers tone

I am on a budget so let me know what would be best!

'59 neck would work well.

Another 59 fan. He essentially used a vintage humbucker in a Tele. If your guitar is on the bright side, an Alnico II Pro might work. If it is slightly darker, look for a Jazz.

I love the 59 too one of my favorite neck humbuckers.

But if you're on a budget maybe a Tonerider Alnico II Classic is a good idea. Really great PAF:ish humbucker for about 50 bucks. If you get one second hand you'd have a super deal at maybe $30 or so.

I love (and use) the SD Seth Lover too, but that's a larger price tag.

GFS also do cheap humbuckers. A low wind one would sound great.
