About the tele

I picked it up about a year ago as we now have a dog and I didn't want the dog to eat some of my other guitars. £75 from eBay and it is what it is and thats a cheap Chinese squire. It sounded very thin and I did look at a seymore single coil and in the end took a hum bucker out of an ibanez I don't play. £6 gotoh copy bridge and another £6 spent on a chisel it fits. Sounds a load fatter. Still it went out of tune a lot set of gotoh tuners fixed that. £40 thanks to Lee at crains for a spot of discount. The new bridge had the option for a string through body set up and as the squire didn't have that option I had to make some holes for the strings to go through under the internation screws. Time passed and I got board so I drilled through the body with fathers spiller drill. Not quite straight but meh. £3 for some string ferros from ebay bit of drilling to the rear of the body and more strings and well hmmm..... Its now a bit bright. I'm not sure it was never set up from the factory as a string though because the wood is wrong for that sort of set up pass. The jury is out on that mod. Next-I don't like the edge of the fret board IMO its a bit sharp so I might pull all the frets out round the edge of the board and install some massive frets. Only thing stopping me is I need the tools to finish the frets.
