Is there any of you using one of the Custom Telecasters?
A 72' Custom Telecaster Reissue or original Custom with one Wide Range Humbucker and a stock Tele Bridge?
I split the neck pickup with a Push Pull pot on my MIM reissue and it sounds great. I used the Neck Pickup Tone pot. It wasn't that hard and it's really cool.
You get a Strat type tone out of the neck position with the neck tone pot pulled up - It sounds different than a stock Tele neck pickup. You can always push the pot down and get the Full humbucking tone.
The whole thing can be easily reversed back to stock because there are no permanent alterations done to the guitar. The cool thing is that even with the mod it looks stock. Works for me.
