in my Hamer Monaco. I especially like the neck pup. This one has a tone that is unreal (but I like neck pups anyway...). The Phat Cat's have single coil spank, but also the fullness of a HB. It did take me some time to find the right height for the pups. Too high and they can be too shrill. But at the "right" distance they are really something. YMMV of course

You also might try a Fralin Unbucker in the neck position. Very cool indeed. Very clear on the bass strings (its selling point), so no muddyness.....I have one in my swamp ash Keith R. look-a-like Tele (with a coil split). I have a Steve Kersting T-90 in the bridge.....very good too. 8)
