    WOW!!!! That's different!!! But really nice!!
    Did the pickguard holes & bridge plate holes matchup o.k?? I'm thinking of changing the p/g on my CV.....black pearloid "was" on the top of my list......now I'm going to be a "copy cat". I am keeping the stock pups but I am going to install the 4-way.

    Everything lines up fine. The only thing is that you'll have to drill a couple more holes (8 hole pick guard). The guitar fetish stuff is really good and fits great. Plus the price is right, you can trick out your tele for cheap.
