$100 Hot Tele Pickup Sets - Telecaster Guitar Forum
Aug 2, 2017 · So I'm researching pickups for my new partscaster. I want to spend somewhere around a hundred bucks for both pickups. I want something a bit overwound and with strong mids and lows, not so much twang for blues and rock. These seem to be my choices: Tonerider TRT2 Hot Classics Seymour Duncan Hot Tele Pickups DiMarzio True Velvets Cavalier Fat Lions
Guitar Madness Alnico II PAFs vs Lollar Imperials Blind Test
Apr 21, 2020 · Most all pickups that cost more than $20 are good quality these days. The economics that used to have that number closer to the $80 mark are about ten years out of date. Pickups like the Epiphone ProBucker, BYO or ToneRider are evidence of Chinese and/or Korean makers figuring out how to close the quality gap.

Which Squier Classic Vibe Tele??? - Telecaster Guitar Forum
Apr 26, 2020 · The blackguard CV I played had a slightly bigger neck than the CV 60’s Custom I ultimately bought (and replaced the neck), so that’s a point for the 50’s model for me. Tonerider pickups in both were great. 50’s model were hotter. I just preferred the 60’s a bit and always wanted a double-bound sunburst tele (2 points for the CVC).
Best bang for buck pickup brand? | Telecaster Guitar Forum
Jan 7, 2023 · Big Tonerider fan. I do have a set of Bootstrap overwound P90s that I haven't put into a guitar yet. Looking forward to that. Also, I don't consider Seymour Duncan or DiMarzio to be budget. They make high quality premium pickups, and in my mind they are the standard that sets the price. Go higher for boutique, lower for budget.

Best sound I ever gotten. They are very responsive and fly under the radar because they mainly make pickups for custom guitar makers.
How did I get here?... | Page 2 | Telecaster Guitar Forum
Dec 9, 2024 · 1 year ago I got a 2023 affinity, and it has was pretty good…now that I have shielded it, switched out the pickups to Tonerider Hot classics, and all the electronics to a pre-wired 920d control plate with a 4 way switch, and smoothed the sides of the fretboard, and very slightly lowered a few strings at the nut…I love it.
