No offense, Ron, but I'm not sure I followed you. I am not seeking to emulate any certain player. I just hear a big difference between absolute vintage tele pickups (alnico 3 with brass cover) and Bardens. I like both for what they bring to the table. Accordingly, I would like to try out a set of Bardens, but wondered if the Lawrence set is close b/c $300 is objectively a lot of money for pickups when you have a family, regardless of whether they're legitimately worth it. Some people say yes, some say, no because their design goals were different. Just trying to get an opinion with real reasons instead of the hype that you're talking about.
