jamesbroonbreed Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 can anyone tell me if a tele neck pickup fits into a strat (neck) without any modifications?p.s. has anyone noticed that the musicians corner isn't really a corner? It's the same shape as the rest of these forums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesbroonbreed Posted March 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 anyone got a more definite answer. cheers tho. i'd imagine it does aswell, but I don't want to spend 369 on a pickup to find out I have to file away my scratchplate which cost me 143.

Soda Jerk Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 369 on ONE pickup??Bloody hell. It better melt faces or I'd be getting my money back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lame Guitarist Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 crikey thats expensive!!!if its the same usual shape as the tele standard bridge pickups then its ok but arent some o the tele neck pickups that small shape?? as for the wiring though yeah the wiring would be ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesbroonbreed Posted March 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 but a tele bridge pickup wouldn't fit into a strat? what with the screw holes (haha) being in a different place and having a different amount. Am I just being dumb here?it didn't really cost that much, I was just making myself seem really rich incase any totally hot birds were enticed by the thread title 'tele neck pickup'.p.s. If your hot, I'm rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lame Guitarist Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 do hot birds actually visit this forum???? heheoh thats true, there are some tele pickups with odd shaped fitments. but i guess it depends on the tele as well as you get the ones that you can put in strat pickups Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lame Guitarist Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 ps forgot to ask, what model of pickup you thinking putting into your tele? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesbroonbreed Posted March 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 I don't have a tele. I have a strat and I want to know if a tele pickup will fit into it. I haven't chosen a model yet because I don't know if it will fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't chosen a model yet because I don't know if it will fit.sorry meant to type strat! there are some seymour duncan tele pickups that should fit into a strat, maybe still need a small bit of filing tho. some cracking strat pickups by bareknuckle pickups and seymour duncans are good. its personal taste like but you cant exactly try before you buy with pickups!

Scotland Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 It won't fit. Screw hole dimensions are totally different from a Strat pickup. If you desperately wanted one (and I can't see why personally) then you could get a pickguard made to accomodate one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
