You know, on further thought, I'm going to look into this a bit more....the nut in general might be the problem, it's stock and I'm sure was never meant to handle the beefy 12s he puts on...its been set up for 12's as well, but I don't know if anyone has ever touched his nut (pun definitely intended) and tuners are also original, so there's a great chance those could be slipping too....I'm going to take his guitar home after next practice and look into some of these issues...if not, I'm really looking to build a new tele, so selling to him may be an option, I'm not totally opposed to it, at least I know where it's going to, right??
