    Hey guys and gals,
    Looking for some help identifying what pickups are in my guitar. I bought it used but pretty sure they are original.
    They are in a 2005 Diamond Anniversary Tele.

    Always very difficult to say with Fender... They should be OV pickups.
    Check the DC resistance on yours and compare with Fender specs :

    That is what I thought. I was told they are American Vintage pickups.
    It has the Delta Tone System which I thought would be paired with hotter pickups. That’s where the confusion arose from.
