Well, I could use the belly cut.....

Dammit Mike - THIS IS FUN!! FUN I TELL YA! Plus its got that cool sparkly finish.

Holes schmoles - what could go wrong?? I always thought the string-thru-body design was part of the Tele sound. Like the springs on a Strat trem. But if those Jim guys (whoever they are) use top-loaders well then maybe I'll give it a try. Plus it would save me a bunch of dickin' around....

Yeah, it probably wouldn't hurt to get a second opinion.

But that's half the fun.

Jealous. That made me laugh out loud.

My new (Squier) Telecaster's bridge doesn't anchor the strings through the body. Oops.... but I can fix that. What bridge would you recommend?

^^^ At least the toggle switch is in the right spot. -
Jenny's gotta be just about wore out by now.

I bought it knowing the neck would probably be the first thing to go. It's on the small side with the typical small-ish frets. The tuners don't seem to be too bad and it doesn't seem unusually heavy. If I can get the bow out of it and some moisture into it, it will go on another Squier (currently has a busted truss rod) and probably get donated. I had a Daytona neck and an AllParts neck collecting dust here faaaar too long , and had no straight-up Tele-type guitar. So - for now - it's sportin' the AllParts, which is my favorite bolt-on and was a perfectly snug fit. It sits a tick over 7 pounds, but I still need some decent tuners.....and maybe/probably pickups.....and a bridge......and.... It's a regular merry-go-round here. -

It's awesome! Want it? It was off within the first half hour of getting here. -
That's really similar to the Boss Katana, which is 25 lbs of Swiss army knife. I'd like to hear those two side-by-side.

Yep, sticking with the Squier. I like the original PRS shape (but the neck heel? WTF?? Looks like they forgot to finish it). This one looks more like Nate's potatoes. -

Not nearly as cool as the one on its way to me: -
I forgot I used to sweat this much....

It's actually a 351, but you were reeeeally close. 451 = four strings, 5 brain cells, one bass player.
