This is for our rhythm guitarist. he specifically wants a Filtertron but thank you anyway ;-)

A Fender Musical Instruments Corporation one or a real one? 

I have neither. I am just trying to understand why anyone would choose a recent Fender group 'Tron over a TVJ. I have a TVJ Classic bridge, in lightly corroded nickel plating, stamped with the patent application number rather than the Jones logo.

As @Funkfingers says, a TV Jones Classic is one of the best (IMHO) Filtertron pickups around. 
I had the chance to hear one back to back with a regular Filtertron, both housed in identical Gretsch 6120's. The difference was noticeable. The TVJ sounded more open with clearer string to string definition. 
I've recently bought one to go in a Cabronita build I'm in the middle of.
