Which telecaster is for me?

Ok so at the moment I've got a Fender '72 Deluxe Telecaster. Which I like, but my style is now seriously moving away from the higher gain stuff and I'm planning on playing in a "indie rock" type of band next year. So I've still got a Mesa Rectifier (high gain) amp, which I love and would like to use as long as possible still, but I do see myself throwing it out for a Vox AC Series, Fender amp etc. in the future since the amp lacks a bit on the clean side. That being said, I'm really keen on a Classic looking Fender Telecaster for around R9k max. I'll go used as well. I've been looking at the Fender Roadworn Series Tele's and they LOOK amazing to me, but I'm not sure how they are further? What other recommendations do you guys have that I can try out? Preferably MIA, but since my budget is low, I guess MIM will also work if it's good. The tele must be able to do anything up to punk rock for me, since I like playing rock now and then as well. Thanks!

I'd not muck around and replace both. They are so much better than stock. If you only replace one, ask yourself which pickup you use more and replace that one. Order directly from Jason.

Original pots were 1Meg logs, reissues are 250K. 500Ks work best IMO.
