Does anyone know when Fender changed the make up of the Highway One?

I have one that doesn't have the grease bucket setup and was wondering if there was a reason for the change and how much difference in sound is there.

Lee :wink:

If I remember correctly the latest change to the Highway 1 was done in mid 2006.

Larger Frets, Hotter Pickups, Greasebucket Circuit. I know there was a couple of other changes but I don't remember what they were.

Chet:

Have you ever heard a comparison between the two? I have an older model and was thinking about putting the new pickups and circuitry in if it was that much of an improvement.

I have not heard a side by side comparison. I have the Upgraded version and love it.
