Hi Folks,
Well I’m a newbie here, got my first Tele yesterday. I’ve played Strats most of my playing life and decided to get a Tele which I’ve always wanted. I’d been looking at sunburst ones for years and figured that’s what I would end up with but all my Strats are sunburst and so I started looking about 2 or 3 months ago at the 52’ RI…. After looking at new and used I decided I wanted something older (well, just not new @$1,600:shock:) and started my search. I finally found what I wanted and here it is and $900:razz: is what I got it for. I was thinking about a Bigsby but now thinking about a different bridge and saddles. Possibly Glendale or Callaham but there are so many choices and right now (with no knowledge yet) am not sure what to get. I’m also not sure if the re-wire was done right but that’s no big deal as my Guitar guy can look at that. I would like to find the schematic and compare what’s been done to it, the capacitors look a little different for some of the pix on here of the altered wiring. Everything else is stock. 10-27-1997 is on the neck….
