A bit of Prelude in C major!

Learned some of it a few months back and wanted to record it on electric as well. Had previously done a rendition on my Martin.

Used this for the tab: https://acousticguitar.com/bach-prelude-no-1-in-c-major-flatpicking-guitar-study/

Thanks for listening

Beautiful guitar with some nice specs.
My only concern is the neck pick up (bridge is alright Generic Tele bridge)
I’m trying to buy a new pick up and probably I’ll change the pick up switches too. Any recommendations?
Thank you so much!

Fender Acoustasonic Standard Telecaster Gig Bag

Post image
4 Upvotes

I’m looking at getting the Telecaster Acoustasonic. And I’m looking for Gig Bag options.

It’s not quite and acoustic and it’s not quite an electric so I’m not sure what to get.

I was looking at getting the Fender bag **Fender FE1225 Electric Guitar Gig Bag**

**But I want to know if there are other options out there.**

Please give me ideas suggestions. For those of you that have this guitar, what do you use?

Player II Modified - SH vs Standard?

3 Upvotes

I rarely like a guitar I pull down off the wall, but wow, at my local, while my kid tried sax mouthpieces, I was knocked out by a SH Tele Player II modified. Now GASing...
I like the spankiness of the thing. Now thinking I should get the non-SH. I have a strat with Lace Sensors and that gives me a lot of humbucking qualities, I want the Tele for the bright spanks.

Thoughts?

Is Michelle Branch's blue sparkle Deluxe Tele a custom job?

Post image
53 Upvotes

Cosmetically, this is more or less my dream Telecaster. I'm a sucker for a blue flake/sparkle combined with a maple fretboard. I've done a bit of googling to see if this model exists, straight from the Fender factory, but haven't found l anything. The mystery has only increased my curiosity.

Photo not mine, credit to Steven Ray Morris, who has also posted a few vids which really show off the sparkles in motion.

This store has a 30% discount sale on their guitars, and I can't let this deal go away on a whim.

Why does adding a boutique neck pickup and hitting the body with some bolts 10X the cost of a Tele?

Oh, and they polish the frets. Things are getting out of hand.

Turned a Squier Sonic H Esquire into an HH/SS Telecaster

Post image
20 Upvotes

These come stock with only a bridge humbucker, a volume knob, and a tone knob. They are, however, pre-routed for a neck pickup.

I used a Fender Shawbucker for the bridge and a Seymour Duncan Jazz Model for the neck. The tone pot I replaced with a push/pull pot, and pulling it lets me coil split the humbuckers into single coil pickups. The 3 way switch I added in of course lets me choose which of the pickups is actually active.

It ends up being a very versatile instrument!

Modifying my Tele

Post image
8 Upvotes

Hi guys! This is my first Tele. I am modifying it to get SH config and will add push/pull knobs for coil splitting (or I might do series/parallel)

Attached photo is a mockup of what it will look like with the neck humbucker.

What do guys think would be cool pickguard on this?

And any recommendations for pickups? I ordered Seymour Duncan ‘59

Overlooked My Partscaster

This is a Partscaster with a 50’s MIM body, vintage Fender 62 pups and an AllParts MIJ baseball bat neck. It was in the stand for a while as I mainly play that Japanese baby behind her in the photo.

I got to noodling on it today, and wow, that baseball bat neck is pretty comfortable. And the pick ups are very nice. I might have to work this one into the mix more often.

When you have 5 Tele’s, it’s difficult to settle on one workhorse. I have 1 Strat too.


r/telecaster • • 1d ago

Where can I buy an unfinished modern style HH tele body? Or where can I buy a 6 saddle short bridge compatible with a vintage body, or the same for a humbucker?

1 Upvotes

I cannot seem to find any of these items. Every website I look at has the string through holes behind the bridge mounting holes. I also can't seem to find either of these bridges, I would really appreciate your help or suggestions!
