I am thinking about buying a Fender Telecaster Blacktop: http://www.fender.com/series/blacktop/b ... ard-black/

I know that I will have to change the pickup to a SH-4 or SH-5 or even a Bill Lawrence humbucker. Will that fit right out of the box or would I have to do any modifications to the guitar?

The humbuckers that come with the guitar, are they standard or F-spaced (trembuckers)?

You might want to consider posting this in the telecaster sub forum.

Okay, you say you know what sound (And or tone) your going for, so if you could tell us what tome your trying for perhaps we can advise you further...

Didn't I mention that quite specifically in my initial post?
