Now that I've put hot rails in my MIK Squier 87, I now of course want to replace them and get a real vintage tele tone - what should I go for? Reasonable budget allowing, I'm open to suggestions - I've been told SDs are the best, but I was thinking Fender Noiseless - all help greatly appreciated.

Also I'm in the mearket for some new pots, same advice needed thanks

I've been very pleased with my SD Antiquities. Put them in my Nashville B-bender tele, which was well-shielded from the factory, and they sound great with minimal hum.

cheers, I'm going for a SD STR Vintage 54 rhythm and the STK T3 in the bridge. You blokes have it so good in the US - I'm paying $125 for the pair via my brother who lives in Boston, over here they are £130 for the pair! What's that about then?

With the exchange rate, that works out at about £60-65. Bargain.
