Cool.

I never got a shot of my '76 Sunburst Tele w/WR front and rear. Great sounding guitar. Penrose Cashies. I swapped it back for my Gretsch Anni, which now Ben has...strange! All roads lead to Ben.

Ha! Might just have to, or in the morning might be safer!! Although you've already played this same set, would be interesting to get your opinion of the stock ones cause I think they're shit :lol:

Got the CS broadcaster / twisted tele set in my tele now, Codedog will attest as to how muddy and shite the stock mexi ones sounded, the look on his face was priceless when he tried them out :lol: Pretty stoked with them, so easy to change with the obsidian wire kit in the guitar!!! And they sound great, basically leaving it in the neck position most of the time, sounds glorious, need to experiment more with the bridge, not used to a proper sounding tele bridge pickup at all!! :lol:

Hah, I'm the complete opposite... I thoroughly enjoy the bridge Broadcaster pickup... can hardly recall what the neck sounds like, but obviously nothing terrible :D Enjoy!

I've only recently moved beyond just using the bridge pickup on every guitar I've owned :lol: got a real thing for neck or middle pickup tones now :mrgreen:
