On my 2000 MIM Standard I've done the following:

Black Pickguard
Jazz Bass Knobs
Reversed Control Plate
Texas Special's (Strat Neck, which I had to rout the pickguard for)
Bigsby
and Locking Tuners

Within the next month it's going to have a kill switch, a phase switch, and a 4 way switch.

Hi from England,

My tele has got a p90 in the neck and a high powered single in the bridge. both from Bare knuckle Pickups. Awesome power and great looks, easily a match for the Hot Rod Tele.

Only mod so far to my 2006 MIM Standard is a new pickguard made by Terrapin. High quality and very fast service. I also have a Terrapin PG on my Deluxe Players Strat.

All my Squier Fat Teles are stock, but on one of them, I had input jack issues and replaced it with a Les Paul-style input jackplate.
