Left: Jan/03 MIM "Hot Peppered" Fender Telecaster. Right: Grantone Big Bee Box™ I modded the Tele with a Fender 5-way Super Switch and a Seymour Duncan Alnico II Pro Humbucker. So the settings are: single, single/single, single/bucker, single, bucker. The Grantone Big Bee Box™ has a custom designed P-90 style pick-up that I call the Cream Bee™, as well as the stock neck pick-up from my "Hot Peppered" Tele.
