Standard Tele Bridge and Dual Lace Pickups

Hey! I have a question regarding the bridge of the standard telecaster (mexican).

Is it possible to remove the standard bridge pickup and install a dual-red-lace-sensor?
I've seen a pic of a standard telecaster with dual-reds in the bridge but i want to be sure of it.

And if not, is there a special bridge available for such things?

Your best bet is to call a Lace dealer and ask them directly.

Bruce at Aamps is a nice friendly Lace dealer, try him.

Did you know that a Dually Red, with each coil being 15K, is a 30K pickup when both coils are engaged in series?

Talk about your non-Tele tone, hehehe...

Of course you can!

But you may need to rout your body for a larger bridge PU space, and you definitely need a new bridge or rout bridge plate for humbucker.

You can change your bridge with something like this http://0rz.tw/e62lk

I guess that you saw a tele such like this, right?
