Permalink Anyone playing a 2008-2011 American Standard with the stock alnico V's?

I have a chance to purchase a 2011 AS with the stock pups for a great price. The guitar plays fantastically. I read Ivans review of the 2012 a few months and it perked my ears. From what I have read the only difference between the 2011 and 2012 is the 2012 has fat 50's which are highly regarded by the surf community.

There are a few cosmetic changes but it sounds like the same great neck etc. I have read reviews on the stock pups and they read very favorably but I'm thinking I will just want to swap them out just as soon as I get the guitar. Anyone using the alnico v's and have a comparison review to a more surfy pup?
