I must admit I never fully liked it (I thought it was o.k., but not something special), but lately I am thinking about buying a Japanese '62 Custom with bigsby and install some really good Lollar or Fralin pickups. I guess any guitarist just must have at least one stock Tele!

Pre CBS PAF? Fender never produced PAFs. Gibson did though...Quote

I've mounted a pre-CBS PAF at the neck and I've left a fender stock '52 reissue and I think it works and sounds very very close
