I have a Fender Telecaster with a maple neck.
It has a BKP 'Flat 50' in the bridge and I've fitted a BKP covered 'Crawler' humbucker in the neck (to be changed to a Mule when I can get one reasonably priced).
It's the age old problem - The bridge wants 250k pots but the neck pickup wants 500k's.
Any suggestions?

On the tone I'd use a 500k log but wire the pickup selector so one side routes from the volume out lug to the common on the selector and then lugs for the pickups opt for voiced capacitors per pickup.
I have a 4 way selector with 0.22mfd on the neck, 0.22mfd on neck and bridge, 0.0.47mfd on the bridge, and nothing on the bridge (because real men don't use tone controls).
That way I can bore people with jazz noodlings on option 1 (with the blanket over the amp sounds of a rolled off tone) and then SURPRISE ICE-PICK IN THE HEAD by flicking to option 4.
