Whatever the pickups you fit, the classic Tele sound will remain. The PUs can't alter the harmonic structure of the sound. But they can pickup a better 'fidelity' of sound than the stoc...

IIRC the Variax demo guy did pinch harmonics. I don't think the Variax models pickup position like the VG system, so the harmonics shouldn't be muted by a pickup being theoretically at a har...
I agree with the above, and would just add that if your pickup lacks highs (i.e., is a high-output unit), there's no way you're going to add them later, whereas a low-output pickup can easil...
