Twang Telecaster Pickups vs Fat Telecaster Pickups. Which tone is best for you?
Listen to Jon Gundry and Matthew Quail compare Telecaster guitars with Fat ThroBak Broadcaster-A3 Classic pickups and Twangy ThroBak T-54 MXV pickups in the Cool Down of this episode's Guitargument.

First Jon and Matthew demonstrate the tonal difference between 42AWG magnet wire and 43AWG magnet wire in a Telecaster and Broadcaster and Nocaster style pickups. They play twin, 70th Anniversary, Fender Broadcaster guitars, one equipped with ThroBak Broadcaster - A3 Classic pickups, (with 43awg wire), and another with ThroBak Nocaster - A3 Classic pickups, (with 42AWG wire). Hear how bow sizes magnet wire change the tone of a Telecaster bridge pickup with the same number of coil turns. Both pickups use ThroBak USA made A3 magnets and both pickups have the same number of wire turns. Both pickups are hand wound, making them perfect for this  A/B Telecaster pickup comparison. All guitars are played clean and dirty through the vintage ThroBak 1979 Fender Deluxe Reverb a Nobels ODR-1 effect pedal.

Following the pickup comparison Matthew Quail tries to stump Jon and the viewers with his Rorschach Riffs. Listen to a combination of 4 signature riffs and pick out which classic songs they are from.

Later Matthew muses about Marvel comic characters that play guitar,
