Show your telecasters with humbuckers!

I like it! I'm a big fan of the Duncan '59 although I've only played it in Les Paul type guitars. I'm also a fan of zebra humbuckers.

Thanks—they’re both my favorites!

Description of my Tele style with humbucker in bridge position by the guy I purchased it from in 2016:

"This is a custom order 2013 Larrivee Bakersfield telecaster guitar in a beautiful and perfectly finished Shoreline Gold finish. Featuring all top-shelf parts, every component of this hand crafted guitar is a cut above regular guitars. It comes from the Larrivee factory routed for two humbuckers. The bridge Larrivee used is a Callaham Mini Vintage Ashtray Bridge. The bridge pickup is a Seymour Duncan JB humbucker. Neck pickup is a single coil from Larrivee however it's routed to also fit a humbucker. This guitar also features a swamp ash body. 3-way switch, and a maple/rosewood neck. The nut is 1 3/4 width and the fretboard radius starts at 12" to an even flatter 16". The neck profile is lifted directly from a '52 blackguard telecaster. The pickguard is black Bakelite.
This guitar was plek’d with fret dressing, setup, and intonation by Glaser Instruments in July, 2016. It has on a brand new set of Thomastik-Infeld JS111 Jazz Swing Series Flat Wound Electric 11-47 strings.
It comes with a fitted Larrivee Bakersfield hard shell case. Both case and guitar are in immaculate condition."

It now has a Duncan JB Trembucker in the bridge position for better string alignment. Another cool feature is the Duncan Triple-shot humbucker mounting ring that allows series, parallel, and coil tapping. My initial idea was to put a JB Jazz pickup in the neck position to emulate the Tele-Gib Duncan guitar, but I've never got around to it. Sounds good as is.

The only thing I dislike about it is the extremely large "Larrivee" logo on the headstock - as if trying to say this is not a Fender.

I believe that Larrivee is going back to producing electric guitars again this year.

In Forrest White's book "Fender: The Inside Story" the Strat was designed to compete w/ Gibson w/ the three pickups and whammy bar.

Forrest was Leo's plant manager. Ugly was not mentioned anywhere as a factor.

Pic seems to be working fine now. This is my Fender Professional Telecaster Deluxe with solid rosewood neck. I love Fenders and Gibson and this is perfect for those times I can’t decide which I like better. I was not a fan of the Tim Shaw V Mod pickups on the Professional Strat but the Shawbuckers I like, a lot actually. This is easily my #1

Not sure what is showing on your computer screen (I am assuming it looks fine) but on my screen the photo is completely blurred with a big Photobucket watermark, right across the top of guitar and neck. I'm guessing likely the imposed functionality penalty Photobucket uses on their customer base with free accounts to encourage a paid subscription

Looks like this . (courtesy of Imgur an actual functional free photo hosting site)

Here's mine. '73 body (refinished a few times) and hardware, aftermarket neck (aftermarket "Esquire' decal).
