Recommend me.....

....a good bridge pickup, to put in my Springsteen copy.

Im not going all out to make it sound like Springsteens, just mainly looks, but it wouldnt be so bad to have a pickup close to his.

Anyway, I am up for something different to my other teles, which have Fralins and Voodoo's in.

I have the guitar stripped down just now, so want to put the new pickup in before setting her back up.

Thank you!!

Bareknuckle 'Piledriver'.
Classic Tele tones with vol backed off - ripping rock tones on full vol. Superb quality to boot.

actually i would probably recommend the boss set of piledrivers
not quite as thick as the piledrivers (or as incredibly hot) but they definitely have enough to drive an amp pretty hard aswell as having a more trad tele clean tone ;)

I had a Bare Knuckle "The Boss" in the bridge of my tele briefly. While it didn't quite suit the style I was needing at the time, I can say it as an absolutely fantastic pickup. Killer tone and sounds exactly as described on the BK site. Sits right on the edge between modern and vintage tele tone, imho. Would work perfectly for Springsteen style music.
