Thanks for the demo. If i want to install that mini humbucker in my tele would i have to make the pickup space bigger in the neck or something or have to do anything special? Or could i just put it in easily?
This guitar was built with the humbucker installed. It is a regular size humbucker, I replaced it with a gibson 57 and it just popped right in. So I'm not sure what you would do with a mini humbucker, presumably cut the pickguard some and perhaps even rout the body a bit to make it fit.
sounds great i love your style!

What sort of amplifier do you use?

No amp in this clip: just a FX pedal USB output into the computer

Nice Tone and Playing Paul, How do you compare tone and feel-wise the stock humbucker vs the '57?
best, keep swinging,

great phrasing, great tone, i can't believe through a numeric thing! Is that a seymour duncan mini humbucker on neck position?

Great playing!
I never owned a tele before, but i'm planning to get one and put a '57 classic in the neck pos.
I'm not much of a luthier, so I wonder if a regular tele body needs further carving in order to fit those '57 pick-ups. Please help.

I don't know. This one had a humbucker in there to begin with, so I didn't have to do anything special to swap it.
