Hello!
I'm thinking about doing a custom guitar build and would love some input on pickup selection.
I have always loved the look and feel of telecasters, but have never really been a fan of the 'twangy' tone you get from them.
I know there are a lot of factors that go into the physics system that is a guitar - wood, hardware, electronics, etc.
The body I am lookin at is a 1 piece mahogany w/ a maple cap. I'm thinking of pairing this with an Indian Rosewood Neck.
Unsure of what to do for the nut or fret wire at the moment - still deciding.
For the bridge - I was going to do one with individual saddles - not the typical 3 saddle fender bridge.
With the above mentioned options - I think it should sound quite a bit different from your standard Tele.
But I'm curious as to what I should do for the pickups.
This is going to have the standard two single coil routes.
Looking for something rich/full/warm - not bright/chimey/twangy.
Would love to hear if any of you have recommendations.
