I have an '08 AM STD Tele that I'd like to put some vintage style tuners on and I just wanted to be sure which bushings to get.

I plan on ordering Gotoh Vintage Staggered tuners - http://www.guitarpartsresource.com/t...nlinegotoh.htm - which are for 8.75mm (11/32") holes.

I'm assuming I need the 10mm (3/8") Bushings - http://www.stewmac.com/shop/Tuners/T..._Bushings.html - in Round Nickel.

Is this correct? Does the American Standard Telecaster have 10mm tuner holes?

And I also understand that I'll have to drill some pilot holes for the new tuner mounting screws.

I did a search on this and couldn't find the info - thanks guys.
