Hi All:

I have bought my used Custom Telecaster® FMT HH which was made in Korea.

The guitar was equipped with the ori pickups as below:
Fender Atomic II TM Humbucker (Bridge),
Fender Black CanyonTM Humbucker (Neck)

I have found out recently that Fender had actually replaced the ori pickup from the pickup mentioned above to the SD pickup as per below since summer of 2004 for this model of Tele.

1 Seymour Duncan® SH-1N RP ‘59 Reverse Polarity Humbucker (Neck),
1 Seymour Duncan® SHPGP-1B Pearly Gates Plus Humbucker (Bridge)

I need your expert advise as I am thingking to change the Fender pickup to the seymour Duncan pickups for my baby custom tele

Can anyone please explain what is the difference in terms of
1) sound character
2) price

of the 2 sets of pickups? I really wish to know what is the moral behind the story that FENDER would have replaced the fender pickup with SD pickup..

Thanks for your help
