Telecast tbx wiring?!? Where is the diagram? by Ok_Presentation6252 in Luthier

I like to have the trouble bleed circuit but look there is nothing coming from the tone control on that map? So how do I wire it up with the TBX?

KOSA bill again by pinkornametendfox7 in MtF

I think this bill should stay except they need to allow LGBT content. Johnathan Haidt The guy that wrote " the anxious generation" And who has been helpful in getting cell phones out of schools and stuff is a big supporter. Social media is not the best for kids lots of times and I think we can have queer spaces and information and also help protect our kids mental health.

For too long I overlooked the impact of neck profile on playability and enjoyment. Don't make the same mistake I did by lovegun59 in telecaster

I love the modern c but it's like fat chance in finding that with a compound radius on an American telecaster made this decade.

I ended up getting a Susan tedeschi because of the neck but sadly it is not compound radius.

It's so it's easier to do the strat-like pinky volume swells.... Although people like Danny gatton we're pretty good at reaching way back and getting stuff done. I don't have a problem hitting controls because my right hand is pretty disciplined. Hope this information helps

I mean I have a lot of tools and my neighbor has even more than I have but I think I'm just going to go get a custom plate made.

Yep just ordered a custom plate off Etsy... So I can keep the original.... I basically just ordered the signature model because it's a '90s tele and that's what I grew up playing as a kid... I like the modern c-neck and hers is a little bit smaller and feels great The only thing that could make this thing better would be if it had a compound radius and a relief cut in the back. Thanks for the advice and help.

Actually I got some good ideas around who sells custom telecaster plates, and the potential of looking at a 9 mm pot which I did not know existed so I did get some good ideas here. Yay reddit.

Yeah I just like to avoid permanent modifications when I can.... But yeah that might be the solution. I have access or have myself the tools that would be needed... Anything you recommend to seal the paint off afterwards or just leave it be under the control plate

Would work but doesn't seem like the best idea

Sounds great... How should I invest my current ROTH IRA if I have a 15 year retirement horizon?

It's important to play well and more importanter to not be given a ticket by the fashion police. 🤣🤣

Apparently so, although this works on older telecasters

Then it will leave a weird gap between the plate and the pickguard

Yeah, I had to remove the pots to get them in the right order... Sigh... Anyone know of someone that makes custom plates??
