Put a set of flatwound 12-52's on my Tele today.
Slightly less twang factor but it thunks like a mofo..

Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

I’m down to just one Bass with rounds , flats rule the roost here.
I imagine Flats could be a Tele tamer in some ways
Enjoy!!

To a certain extent. This particular guitar is inherently bright and has retained much of it despite the flats. However the bridge pu has never been an issue. Clean at low volume requires some tone back off but cranked it transforms into a real rock machine.
I was seeking that spaghetti western bottom string thud and they have certainly delivered.
