Hi, has anyone tried this (62 bridge pu.)? I'm looking for a bright 60's, staggered bridge pickup.
thanks.

This pickup sounds great in my AV62RI Custom Tele (as does its partner at the neck). Lovely snap, not too bright but plenty of upper mids to cut through. Mind you, a lot of the character could also be attributed to the physics of my individual guitar, with its threaded steel saddles, which seems to be a particularly responsive example.

Why not try to locate an instrument of this model in a local store and see what you think when you try it?
