I traded my Epiphone Wilshire with the P90's for this Fender Telecaster yesterday afternoon. The Wilshire sounded great but the neck was a chunky D shape I just couldn't bond with, but I definitely want a P90 guitar in the arsenal eventually because it sounded so good!!

This Tele is practically brand new and is one of the Fender Standard Made In Indonesia Tele's that came out this year. So far it seems to be built pretty good.

The stock PU's are not the greatest, but that is an easy fix. Anyone want to recommend pickups for this for Rock N Roll tones?

For rock at a reasonable cost, I like the Seymour Duncan Quarter Pound Tele set (~$130). Really thick sound and hot enough to get cookin' when you turn up the gain.

Congrats on your newly acquired Tele.

Thank you! I have been researching Tele pickups for more of a Rock vs Twang. someone mentioned those and some are saying the Fender Nocaster 51's are a good set for rock too. I'm in no hurry for now but plan to make a few minor upgrades like a better nut vs the plastic one that is in there now.

EDIT: BTW, those pickups sound awesome and what I'm looking for!
