I’ve borrowed a nice mij tokai breezysound 62 custom style telecaster.
its a nice guitar , and I’ve been playing it a lot in the house , but I haven’t been gigging it .
one of the club bands I play in do punk / new wave stuff (stranglers , dickies, dead boys , buzzcocks, thunders , clash,stooges, damned , ramones etc ) so I thought the breezy might fit . But the stock bridge pickup is a bit under powered for that type of thing.
I wondered if it might be worth upgrading it to something more powerful and gigging it . It’d be good to get les Paul type output and crunch out of it (my other guitar is an lp custom ) but I don’t want to lose too much of the character of the guitar.
What you guys reckon ?!

Full output gives a substantially fatter tele sound, and you’ve got twang when tapped.
