    Default neck bucker in Tele

    Ok...I am planning what might be the next guitar. In the bridge I will more that likely go with a Duncan Vintage 54 (or a used BG-1400, since I don't want to deal with the Custom Shop for a while), but Im gonna stick a fullsize neck bucker in it...give me some suggestions.

    How 'bout a Mini Custom, if they have a neck version that is? I always though it would sound cool in a Tele.

    a mini is a great idea.

    i've got one in the neck of my tele with an antiquity II bridge and it's an awesome combo.

    well...I'm pretty sure that if this guitar ever comes to, it will have a bucker in the neck....that's why Im leaning towards a BG-1400 in the neck...it would be noiseless in all positions!

    well...I have heard real good things about the BG-1400 which is a stack, and it would just be nice to have both pickups to be humbucking...
