Im looking at replacing my bridge pick up in my telecaster. Im looking on guitar fetish and they have the Professional series 52 or the professional series 63. Any one have any idea what the difference might be in the tone. I want more of a bite like twang of Esquire.
What is a good pup to achieve this? I have FSR fender tele. I am playing with the idea of going full on esquire.
any help or insight? any thoughts?

I have to agree with seymour duncan broadcaster idea. I just bought my first tele in august after playing strictly humbucker guitars for 13yrs. I wanted to swap pickups in the guitar, and I was being a wuss about using single coils. My buddy gave me a broadcaster bridge pickup, just to try it. I put that bad boy in and never looked back. Its quiet, the tone is well balanced, its loud, but not too loud, and it handles high gain flawlessly. I play rock music, and this pickup fits the bill. Its also good for clean sounds and twang.

The SD Broadcaster is about 50-55$. A GFS tele bridge is 30$. For the extra 20-25$ you are getting one helluva pickup that compares side to side with 100-120$ boutique pickups.
