Good sounding pickup for Tele Bridges
Installed it myself in a Harley Benton TE-30 Telecaster clone.
Wouldn't quite fit into the pre-drilled route in the wood as the two lips on the edge of the pickup make it slightly larger than a singlecoil. So spent about an hour filling the wooden hole wider. Edges of the bridge also needed slight filing to fit the pickup in place.
Once in sounds very good. Quite hot output so might be worth shielding the inside of the instrument.
Gives a much beefier and full sound than the stock single coil while still maintaining the characteristics of a tele (fast bright attack).
Would buy again.

Rock machine
Best pickup single coil size for bridge telecaster, is an authentic rock machine, advise to all the guys who want to have a rocker telecaster, and ready for all kinds of music, I can not undo it, has a super balanced sound and full, another advantage is that it provides for setting the capture screws.

But this on my Squier Tele... wow
So, my first e-guitar was a squier tele. It play really nice, but the sound with the stock pickups was pretty dull. Just no personality in the tone, really boring, i guess. The first pickup I changed was the bridge positioned one. But this one on, and I can honestly say the sound is at least 5 times better. It comes with instructions too, so if you have access to soldering equipments, it's very easy to fit this pickup by yourself (provided you know how to solder, of course). I should mention the sound is the tinny rhythm sound you want on the bridge, and by adding some gain, you can play some really nice-sounding solos.

All kinds of yes!
I previously owned SD Hot rails and was happy with it, but this time I wanted something less hot. Little '59 fits the bill. On 500k volume pot, no tone it retains the highs and does exactly what I want from it. I'm happy with the sound.

Great sounding pickup, i have this in my US deluxe tele and i love it, i use a push pull vol pot and this sounds great split also.
- like the sound size and look
- only issues is i have this paired with a little hot rails in the neck position and the output of the 59 is noticeably lower but this is no fault of the pick up but something to note if you are buying one
