I am with yegbert...I like the SD pups too. The Broadcaster will get you an ealy 50's sound. The 54 and Antiquities will get you a mid to late 50's sounds. I feel the Alnico II pro is kind of a soft 60's sound.

I know that is why I asked the question. I currently have a 4 teles. I have a variety of pickups in them from Broadcaster down to 5K. I understand that they all sound different. I also understand that I could probably play country with any of them.
What I am looking for is what pickup would best suit classic country? I want that clean pushed twang sound you hear so often. I have learned that light guage strings really help. Maybe I should just restring all my guitars with light weight strings and see which one sounds the most country to me. But, I figured that all the country players on this forum could probably help me get there quicker.
Thanks for your help.
