I ve got a set of Onamac Tele "Hot Specials" on the way to me, Kerry Learned is a winder on the US east coast, and supplies pickups to many boutique builder like Witfill Custom Guitars here Jack Pearson tries out a tele loaded with "Hot Specials" at NAMM

FYI On the local front I'm waiting on a bridge pup from Pete Buckle (Luthier/Winder in Benoni) give me a week or so I can give an opinion of that.

Had "The Boss", best tele bridge pu if you don't mind a bit of hum. Got plenty tops and added low mids, really just a hotter vintage tone. Couldn't justify keeping it when I sold my hollow body Tele (not thinline).

been using a GFS neovin for bridge pu, no hum, the tone isn't perfect but its the closest I've found in the tops in the humcancelling world. (I haven't tried the dimarzio area range tho so salt required- i have tried: cool and hot rails, Fastrack 1, 2, T, stacked seymour duncan something, EMG Tele set)

But now I found a guy who will wind pretty much anything at a fair price. Neil Pincus on the west rand. And I'm returning to standard singles.

So The Boss is my recommendation or something similar...

Go have a look at what the new seymour duncans are going to be retailing at. It's financially feasible for us to support local builders, because its going to be custom made for us and cheaper. Only catch is you need to know what you want / dont want.

I just put in a naughty order for a Humbucker bobbin with a mix of rod magnets and dummy slugs (no bar magnet) so a custom z coil (think G&L) that looks like a humbucker. I swear ill post a review when I get it.

I told him I was in no rush as its a fathersday gift. So we all will have to excercise some patience.
