I really like the sound from the Deluxe Nashville guitar, but I wanted the quality, playability and look of the American Standard so American Standard (ash) is what I got. A beautiful guitar with a nice sound, but I would like to get that hotter country twang and am thinking of changing the pups to Telecaster Texas Specials.

Has anyone done this and what have you thought of the results? Thanks.

Get a standard 52RI pickup - sold by any Fender dealer as a Vintage Telecaster unit. It can nearly do everything a Tele pickup should at a very reasonable price.

Custom Shop Texas Specials are awesome sounding pups, put in a 4 way switch too so they will go in series......real nice tone option when playing a little dirty.
