Do the strings on your Squire Tele. go through the body? It's hard to tell from the picture.
Regards Dr. Bob
It has a small MIJ on the headstock as well as a small 'silver series' logo on the very top of the headstock...it also has a really nice grain running through the maple neck...much nicer than my jap and american strats.... all in all a really nice tele...the strings don't run through the body...i had thought of getting a vintage style bridge plate and the string ferrules and drilling out the body the same as a real tele...thats the only thing that annoys me about squier teles...why doesn't fender drill out the body.... they go to all the trouble of routing out the squier strats the same as the real ones for the tremolo block which must be a lot harder to do even with all the automatic technology thay have now.....i reckon drilling out the tele for the strings wouldn't be that hard.....
yep...no problemo Doc....might be later this evening tho' as it's a bit nuts around here at the moment..i'll try to take a few close ups if you want.....
just an update... i haven't forgotten about the pics....mrs franzoni's camera took a fall at a wedding last week and it's getting fixed at the mo.........
Yep shouldn't be a problem..it was late and i was a bit tired also the camera is still acting up a bit..i'll try again later,if you look carefully you can make out the silver series logo on the top of the headstock..as far as i know this series was only made in japan..it does have a skunk strip down the back of the neck and the tuners were replaced by me with sperzels locking tuners because i bend strings behind the nut sometimes.... the strap covering the chip on the body wasn't intentional...i put a strap my mother made for me when i was younger on this guitar.... she also made a matching cover for my musicman amp..i must see if it's still in her house somewhere....
Curt is a cool guy and the amp is amazing. I'm not too convinced by the speaker (it still looks amazing though) but I like it better when it's conected to the 4x12 cabinet underneath.
You can exchange tubes (you can order a mad scientist tube set as well - which is fun) and 1watt is far more than you can use in an apartment.
