Guitar Pickup Repair: Telecaster Bridge
Guitar pickup repair – Repairing a Telecaster Bridge Pickup.
A guitar needs a tight neck joint
The neck joint is the heart of the guitar, loose and you lose sustain and in many cases, the neck becomes unstable. With a good, well made tight neck joint a guitar will always sound better – you will hear it in the sustain.
The Creamery – Custom Guitar Headstock Design
Just a quick post – Here’s a closeup pic of the headstock design. After playing around with more a few more sharper versions I finally settled on this curved variation on the traditional format.
Each headstock will have the logo, guitar name, serial number and the date on which each guitar was crafted.
Butcher’s Block Telecaster – Specs
There was just something about it. When tapped it had that ‘ring’, that sound that was far more than the usual dull thud you get with many woods. Maybe its the many blocks of birch laminated together under pressure. Maybe its the 40mm thickness. Maybe, maybe, maybe. One thing’s for sure – it sounds good.
