MJT Thinline Tele build - pickup recommendations wanted

markslade07

So I'm putting together my first build, which happens to be based on a lovely MJT Thinline tele body I got off here a short while ago. I'm in the process of getting bits and bobs together but I've come to a point where I can't make a decision. So....heeeeelp!

I've got a rather nice Broadcaster pickup for the bridge, but I'm really not sure what to put in the neck. Classic single coil, P90 or maybe even a HB. I play all kinds of stuff in my band, and have got a Baja, a Les Paul and a Strat so those sounds are covered. I'm leaning towards a P90, but it would need routing for it. 

What would you guys do? What recommendations do you have for nice pickups that cover sounds I don't already have, without spending a fortune on one neck pickup?

I'd speak to Ash at OilCity.

My Tele has a TVJ Filtertron in the neck position actually it's a Supertron which is a bit hotter than a Filtertron but it's paired with a fairly hot BKP Boss at the bridge so that works.

Anyway, I absolutely love it
