Baritone partscaster pickup ideas

First time poster, looking for some input.

Im piecing together a baritone tele, so far with a one piece maple neck, a bigsby, paulownia body, and a dimarzio chopper t in the bridge.

I'm considering a Curtis Novak Jazzmaster for tele, but wondering if anyone has other recommendations. I already have a tele baritone with a seymour duncan p-90 in the neck. It sounds reasonably good, but I dont think I want to go the p90 road again. Not sure how I feel about a humbucker in the neck.

I should also note I'm not into down-tuned hard rock or anything like that. I play a more bluesy, surf, punk, alt country style. A combination of basslines and lead riffs. Every once in a while ill add a little dirt or fuzz to my signal, but not too much.

Does anyone have experience with the Novak pickup? I had one in a jazzmaster a few years back and loved it, but not sure how it will turn out in a baritone tele.

Any ideas for other pickups to check out? Id like to go with something you might not see everyday.

Thanks!

I'm playing my own baritone partscaster in this clip, on the neck pickup - a Dano lipstick from a Korean reissue. I like it so much on that guitar, I'm considering a lipstick bridge pickup for it too.

Lot of love around here lately for lipsticks. And that clip sounds great! Don't see lipsticks every day. I remember the days long ago when we turned up our noses at "cheap crap" like those Danos that are so cool now, in retrospect. . .

Hey, just checked out novack's website, pretty cool! How about his Bass VI pickup?

I've converted my Thinline to a baritone and I've left in the original EMGs.

And I'm pleasant surprised. Not gigged it yet but I'll report back when I do.

Here it is next to my Dano Bass VI (which used to be a Pro56 :razz:)

Gotta love the interchangeable neck concept!
