    well just got a new mexican telecaster and the neck pickup is lovely and even the middle selection is nice but the bridge on its own is just way too thin for my tastes so i need to swap out the bridge pickup!

    anyone have any suggestions?? no point in buying a whole set as im happy with the bridge, what about the ones on this page?? > http://store.guitarfetish.com/singlecoil.html

    i realise they wont be amazing but the prices are very good! anybody any preferences on what to get??

    I had a Seymour Duncan Telecaster Hot Rails in the past. I liked it but it was a 80's rock sound only.

    Maybe ask this guy...http://www.adverts.ie/showproduct.php?product=73079

    I thought thin was what Tele bridge pickups were famous for.

    With whatever you get, consider getting a set. You want something that will be balanced and compliment your neck pickup.

    Tele bridge pickups aren't supposed to be thin..
