Hum Free tele question

I just picked up a MIJ '62 tele that has a Dimarzio VV in the bridge and , at least in THIS guitar , it sounds GREAT !! So I'd like to find a noise free NECK pickup as well - but it must have a traditional look and work well w/ the Dimarzio

any ideas ??

Other that an expensive Kinman neck pup ( they sound great btw ) I would highly recommend a Dimarzio Twang King. While not noiseless, they are pretty dang quite...and the chrome cover gets the look you require.

The VV neck is a great sounding pickup.....but alas, no chrome cover.

The VV bridge pups ( I use and really dig the Hot T ) are wonderful pups for little dollars. I realize they are not everyones ideal, but I'm happy to say the one I have kicks major arse!

The Duncan Antiquity is another great neck pup.....again, not hum cancelling...but pretty darn quiet.

Hope you find the right match bro!
