Finished moding my Tele

Well, I finally got all the moding done, but it still needs fine tuning. Here's some pics.




By the way, here's the specs
1996 Lefty American Standard Telecaster
Neck pickup - Harmonic Design Vintage Plus
Bridge Pickup - Harmonic Design 54 Special
Bridge - Cheap no name vintage style bridge (with Darrell Mod)
4 way switch.
Also have the ashtray, but I left it off.

Found your thread

and I got to see those pictures.

Man, that is "clean"...ha ha

(clean - no significant modifications to the guitar)

I really like that.

I am so glad it worked out for you. This is the first post I have where someone is using my mod.

I almost have a tear.

Great job!

Close up of mine

Did you notice a change in tone?

Did you notice a change in tone between your new bridge and you old one?

Did you notice any improvement in sustain?

Just curious

(I know what my answer is, I just wanted to hear it from someone else)
