I have a 2012 Am St Tele on the way and was curious if any of you folks have swapped out the neck pup on these. I am strongly considering a Seth Lover HB (I love HB') but didn't know if anyone else has tried this or what pups you may have put in one of these. Don't get me wrong, the Twisted Tele is nice but I am looking for something with a little more output without twang.

I would leave it alone if it were me and also I love single coil pups but if I had to get a humbucker I would get the one in this Tele: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1r3Lbh4W ... re=related

^that has overdrive on but man does it sound great IMO :) Just take it from me get the actual Fender brand pickgaurd. I had a off brand one for mine and the single coil neck pickup had a huuuuuuge wiggle issue so I bought a standard Fender pickguard and bam all good :D

Good question! Fender doesn't actually offer an American Standard Telecaster SH with the neck humbucker option. But they did a few Fat Telecasters in the late 1990s.
