Seems most T style Andy's with VA's in the neck and middle have a TV3 in the bridge. Would VA 5's be an OK match with a TD3+ in the bridge? If not, why not?

I'll get into boost options later. ( I always have LOTS of questions--ha)

most go with either all hum cancelling or all not. kind of depends what you need it to do.

Thanks Tom. I'm the guy with the T Classic, set up "esquire" like , with just the TD3+ in the bridge. Very cool, but find I really need more pickup options. The guitar plays so nice that I don't want to sell or trade it. What would you suggest as a nice compliment to that TD3+. Really like the ability to get both "strat" and "tele" sounds out of one guitar.

Thanks for any suggestions.

if you're using the humcancelling sounds on the td3+, then i'd mate it with Sf1's.
if you're always splitting, i'd use SA1's.
have you thought about switching?

Do you mean switching out that bridge pickup, or switching options? As far as the bridge------yes I have considered a different pickup to go with VA5's, or VA 7's. Alittle confused at the moment. Probably should give Roy a call.
