Tele pups upgrade - Lawrence v Barden v Hotrails?
OK you techie fuhkengruvers.........who's got some experience with changeouts involving these three (four?,,,see question below) types of pups?
I love tele twang, but want to get closer to DG's style of tone (gawd - if only I get "close" in the talent dept!). Anyway - I know these are largely variations on a theme - any feedback on how these compare to each other?
Also - there seems to be a "Lawrence" and a "Bill Lawrence" brand of pup available. Now, I know our good friend from Athens, OH has his counterparts at Stew-Mac selling the former, but the latter fervantly denies any association. I've not heard the story - nor do I care to for fear of starting any flame-throwing. But it does beg the question - are there differences between the two? If so, iin what ways? Anybody with any experience between these two pups would be especially intriguing to hear from.
FYI - the guit they's be going into is a bone-stock Std MIM Tele. Not the fanciest of axes but a joy to play......just want to get it a bit "edgier"......KWIM?
