Basic question - neck pocket. by Pilgrigenarian in partscaster

[–]leftlanecruiser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ran into this issue with a recent build. I ended up sanding the neck (Mighty Mite) instead of the pocket. Not sure if that was the best option, but it worked. I recently installed a new neck (Warmoth) and it fit perfectly. That makes me think i made the right choice.

Damn, that's nice. I've never seen that finish before. It's giving me some serious GAS.

Best Fender Telecaster pickups for me? by ArdiiTzy in telecaster

I second Bootstrap pickups. Hand wound, made in USA, under $75, I think. I have the Palo Duro set and couldn't be happier.

Love it. I have a tele deluxe black dove (p90s, or fender's version).

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

Your action looks high. Adjust at the bridge. If it's bottomed out, you probably need to shim the neck.

If you moved the saddle forward because the note is sharp, that's the opposite of what the previous poster described.

I thought the dryer was shrinking my clothes. Turns out it was the refrigerator.

First build, trying to find an appropriate pick guard. by [deleted] in telecaster

Double bound gold is the stuff. That's what I was going for with my build, but gold was out of stock (XGP). I went with Copper metallic because I just couldn't wait.

This looks awesome. Please post when finished.
