Again, the car metaphor -- I live in Maine, so used car dealers are always advertising vehicles that came up from Florida -- no salt on the roads....
American Professional Deluxe -- the older model. I loved the feel of this guitar -- how solid the neck felt, the rounded fretboard edge. I'm ready...
GASing for this guitar but the bridge raises a question -- from my "research" it looks like the non-JV teles are toploading -- this one is...
Using a loop pedal can really open up your practicing. It's a bit of an investment -- in the $100+ range -- but then you can lay down a riff or...
shims installed... action improved, li'l buzzy still on the g but not audible in the amp. i'll take it, for now!! pic of stamps[ATTACH]
>>However, that cheap 4 screw hole ABOVE six widely spaced, low down through holes bridge from Sung Il wouldn't mount directly to that '89 body...
I switched out my Fender ashtray with a (budget, Korean-made) Wilkinson dual-load bridge in order to try top-loading. (Observations so far = tone...
Haha well that would be me. ("We are the ones our parents warned us about.") I wasn't happy with my last set-up and decided to have a go at the...

Hey y'all -- I've posted about this guitar before, but I have a new theory as to what may be ailing it. (Guitar: MIM Joe Strummer neck on USA...
checked with the luthier: frets were crowned -- but the "extra overtones" remark is dead-on -- yes, like an octave up, not clear like a harmonic,...

Not buzzing exactly, but not ringing true -- you have to listen closely, but the tone is wavery, like the parabola is weird -- it has the sort of...
I was two private sales removed from the resurrection. Intonation was all over the place when I got it. Fret-leveling helped, but didn't fix...
OK -- in the spirit of science, I threw on a set of DR pure nickel Pure Blues (10-46). Much better intonation across the neck. Not sure what the...
I put on DR Pure Blues (nickle) 10's -- this is a different guitar. It's musically, mechanically sound -- the strings were the thing. Not my tone...
Y'all are sharp -- thank you. I need to read again & process. Thanks for the vibes on what tele-normal is. Fascinating theory about the 22...

the whole guitar [ATTACH] string-through holes -- you can see impressions in the paint where the previous ferrules were (old ones closer to the...
Thank you all. Frets are good, I think -- just leveled. Bridge... I haven't checked yet. Nut -- just cut by luthier but could get 2nd opinion....
Hey there crew, I joined the forum because I picked up kind of an oddball Telecaster with some unsolved problems & am hoping for some...
