Hi guys/girls!

This is my first Post, so please forgive me if I don't always use the correct terms.

I will have a 2006 Nashville Telecaster delivered to me on Wednesday, so I have been searching various Forums, and what has caught my attention are Posts about adding/changing a switch/a push/pull knob to get different pickup configurations, which I assume (uh-oh) are meant to get closer to a true Telecaster sound because the Nashville Telecaster is missing the Bridge/Neck Pickup Combo.

Here are a few quotes:

Quote:
BUT you can add a simple switch that WILL get you that tele-middle thing happening. All it does, is make the bridge pickup add into any setting the toggle switch is on. Naturally nothing different happens in position one or two. However, position 5, neck only, suddenly has the bridge pickup along with it just like the middle toggle position on a tele.



Quote:
Some have suggested a modification to add a push/pull pot or blender knob that would allow you to add in the neck pickup to get the "true" Tele tone.



Quote:
I just received the Fender 5 way switch from last night that allows you the missed tele switch position of the bridge/neck in place of the middle only. Installed and jammed for an hour. I'm liking my Nashville more and more each day



So what are they talking about?


Do you simply replace one of the existing knobs/switch, or do you have to drill a hole to add the knob/switch?



Or......................................................................................



are they talking about a Fender Nashville Tele 7-Way Control Plate Loaded CTS Pots CRL Switch Coil Tap
that is shown on this url:

Or........................................................................................


the Fender 5-Position Strat/Tele Super Switch shown on Sweetwater's site?

The more I search, the more confused I'm getting, so HELP PLEASE!!!!!

There are several ways to add the neck/bridge combination.
Anyways, and with all due respect, maybe give the Nashville, your other gear and yourself some time to get to know each other before modding. :wink:
