Sorry...I thought Telecaster was a requirement in all headings today.

If you sing into the bridge pickup loud enough, it almost sounds like a U87.

No, but if you buy an expensive enough one you can walk down the street humming a telecaster.

The PUPs in the MexiTeles are super-microphonic and they make a nice alternative to an SM-57 in a pinch.

I had a 79 P-bass that we actually used a clip of a bassplayer talking right before the song started (which printed to the track through the pickup) in a song.

I saw a performance by K.K. Null, a Japanese noise artist, who really 'got into it' at one point by engaging in an extended bout of screaming full force into the pickups that translated through his effect chain and wall of amplifiers for a SERIOUS wave of white-noise din. I might add that he wasn't much quieter playing guitar 'normally' in his full band Zeni Geva.
