I wish I loved my Fender Vintera Roadworn Telecaster Deluxe. But I don't.
The general feel is great, but the neck isn't. And the sound? It's not my favorite.
Doug from @idlepickups took that as a challenge. He handed me a set of his Wide Range "Baby Man" pickups, which only cost $250 for the set ($150 each). Do they make me change my mind about this guitar? Let's find out.

So, what'd you think?
After listening back, the neck pickup is a big improvement. And that's really where my issue was with the guitar. The bridge is very similar, and Doug later told me that was on purpose, so mission accomplished!
Personally, I'd recommend this set to someone who's looking to upgrade a budget guitar or wants affordable but great-sounding pickups in a fresh build.
