The Super has a deeper magnet than the standard (as there is a deeper cover to handle it) so has a touch more bass and is a fraction louder. The Standard fits guitars with shallower routs more easily and can have any cover that a normal humbucker can have. The Super is limited to the tall, curved top cover. and may be too deep for some shallow bodied guitars.
Both sound properly 'Gr--ch' like however.

Well of course it wouldn't be sat in a big steel ashtray ... so the sound wouldn't be exact ... but it would get you a fair bit of the way. It certainly would have a more Tele like growl and authority.

The guitar in question is this MIM Classic 50s Tele:

Blitz Spirit neck humbucker (slightly overwound), Honky Thonk Angel bridge pickup, tweaked broadcaster wiring.
Sounds amazing for everything from alternative hard rock (think Foo Fighters), passing through Slash leads, to Stones blues rock (pickup setup inspired by Keith Richards).
Also both pickups balance perfectly, as Ash had reasured me. Top notch.
