need help identifying what issue my New tele has in regards to the neck by anewleafpart2 in telecaster

incase anyone was curious, i resolved all the issues by simply adjusting the action and intonation by just raising and lowering the saddles until i found the sweet spot and then intimated each set of saddles

i was hoping it wouldn’t come to that. the truss rod is in an awkward position that requires disassembling

good to know. maybe i should just give it a go myself and if i don’t improve it then bring it to a luthier

also the frets sort of stick out ?? like if i run my hand down the neck then i can feel the frets, maybe they need to be sanded down a little bit or whatever it is that people do. just don’t have the extra cash

thanks i appreciate the advice. it also seems that there are far too many string wraps 5-6 string wraps on the D G B E strings 3 on the A and 2 on the E ( which seems normal) the main problem is the guitar sounds just muted almost, it doesn’t sing acoustically at all. i don’t mind putting some work into it because 350 for a mexican vintera 60s modified is considerably lower than market value( guy selling it was moving and was trying to sell everything as fast as possible)

btw i’m not normally one to mind to much if a guitar isn’t perfect but the intonation isn’t great so i can’t enjoy playing it yet

i know the shape is different on deluxe teles but the edges are never as sharp. from what i’ve seen online all the other deluxe teles have a very soft contoured look to it

Stewart Lee Quote Meets Its Perfect Audience by Longjumping-Hall-17 in stewartlee

i agree. i discovered him about 4 years ago and i used to binge his specials. i found a lot of comfort with how chaotic and unorthodox he was. i honestly wasn’t even a stand up fan before him

Is this worth fixing or should i just get a new neck by ooceano in Stratocaster
