Combination meaning there maybe two different types of pick ups on the guitar...single coil or humbuckers. There are lipstick tubes, and gibson's version of the single coil called a P90. Slightly smaller than a humbucker bigger than single coil. Single coil most closely associated with Fenders, Humbuckers mostly with Gibson. Having said that: Teles have their own voiced single coiled pick ups. In general a Tele pick up does not fit on a Strat without modification to the body. A Strat pick up may fit a Tele although why not just go with a Strat. In my opinion the Tele is a Tele for a reason and it is a formidable guitar that can stand alone for many styles of music! So what's holding you back now? Versatile Guitar Lots of Uses, Styles not to be confused with the Strat. There are sounds on the Tele you can not get with a Strat. You can get some Strat sound from a Tele though.
