Hi, I currently have the Steel pole 43 in my telecaster (500k pots) and I absolutely love it (Thank you !) but I’d like to go noiseless. Plus, I wouldn’t mind having just a little bit beefier bridge pickup. Does this pickup have similar tone and output ? With 500k pots, is it brighter/thinner or darker/ beefier than the SP43 ? Thanks.

Hey Nicolas,
As it turns out, the Steel Pole 43 is the hottest Bridge pickup we make for Tele. The Split Steel Pole Tele Bridge is a bit cleaner and clearer than the Steel Pole 43 but thicker-sounding than our Steel Pole 42 – it’s right in the middle.

Balanced, sweet, and no hum!
I was building a custom Tele and wanted a sweet-sounding Tele bridge pickup that would match well with a CuNiFe wide-range humbucker in the neck position. Lindley suggested the Split Steel Pole pup and WOW was he spot on. Now, one of my favorite pickups.
