for experimental purposes i fitted the old neck from the Jazzmaster to the Telemaster body. i ordered a $30 10kΩ Tele bridge pickup that should balance the 7.2kΩ neck mini-hum and overcome some of the shrillness inherent im an ash body. the big problem is that the neck bolt holes are wildly out of whack, both position-wise and running diagonally. i may take this out to Charlie’s tech and have him do it because i have little confidence in my ability to do a lot better. i like the TM much better with the JM headstock. i still don’t know if i want a Telemaster, but since the total cost so far is $40 i can’t really resist finishing it. it has a vibe…i just don’t know if it’s my vibe. it seems more like a Keef guitar than a me guitar.
