I put Veritas pickups in my telecaster! I've had my G&L ASAT Classic guitar for a couple years and absolutely love the feel of it, but I was wanting to get a little bit different tone out of it, so I bought the Pioneer "Longhorn Tele" pickups from Veritas website. They sound so good to me! The neck pickup feels very warm, the bridge has a nice bright bite to it, and they both respond really well to my pedals and strumming/hit intensity.

In this video, I'll talk through why I made the decision, how I put the pickups in, and then of course a section where you can just hear how they sound. I'm running the tone part of the video through my Keeley Compressor and Benson Preamp into Strymon Iridium Vox setting (with David Hislop IRs). Let me know what you think of the pickups! If you're looking to upgrade your tele, I think this is a fantastic option, and they were very easy to install.
