Can you put a Strat bridge on a tele?
As you probably know, you can’t simply put a Stratocaster bridge pickup into a standard Telecaster bridge because of the different mounting systems and sizes. A Tele bridge pickup usually has three mounting holes, while Strat pickups have only two.
What Bridge does a Telecaster use?
Fender American Series Telecaster Bridge This is the same bridge used on many of the Fender American Telecaster models, making it a good upgrade option for a Squier Tele or one of the Standard Telecasters, though not a better option than something like the Babicz bridges.
Are Tele and Strat bridge pickups the same?

Can Strat sound like Tele?
