I think the Chopper T Pickup might be a keeper.

Installed Dimarzio Chopper T Tele pickup a few weeks ago and added new split coil switch yesterday. Here is another test of the pickup with new switching.

I am starting to get some decent sounds out of it. Let me know what you think

Nice licks, good sound. What were you running all this through?

 

[Telewanger]

I am running it through an old Laney Pro Tube Lead and a Fender Twin. Effects are Fuzz Face, delay modulation and post reverb.

Nice tone great licks thanks for sharing.

Pretty nice! What kind of Strat is that with a Tele bridge pup?

 

[Spudman]

Doesn't Richie Kotzen use a Chopper? He gets some great sounds. Sounds great through your rig too.

Thanks!

This guitar has a Fender Strat licensed body, Warmoth Telecaster neck, Telecaster Bridge, Dimarzio Chopper T Tele lead pickup, Wilkinson Strat pickups in the middle and bridge position, Strat 5 way switch, 3 way mini toggle switch for switching lead pickup ( single coil north - double coil - single coil south ) and the bottom tone control is wired like a Tele. I call it my "Half Breed" guitar. It has the best of both worlds. It can sound like a Strat or Tele!

Works for me! I personally like the Tele bridge pup about a billion times more than a standard Strat bridge. I played a Tele with a Virtual Hot T bridge and really liked it.
