Damn dude that sounds like a pain in the ass. I drilled holes in my bakelite guard to mount the pickup too just for ease of adjustment.

Yeah dude, it was. And I meant when I ordered the pick guard for the telemaster, I got one with holes to pick guard mount. The computer auto corrected to telecaster. But seriously, for being one of the simplest guitars build wise, telecasters are annoying as shit to adjust certain things. But I just put some locking tuners on my current tele and adjusted the string height and intonation, so everything should be good to go for now with the new quarter pound pickups. I'm excited to get the telemaster parts and get to work.

And I don't know much about Atlas, but their builds look good. Glad I could remind you.

Yes. Been asking for loaded vs unloaded quotes. I know Mammoth gives prices for unloaded off the bat.

Yea Tom (Mammoth) does not have a ton of dealer prices so for example it might be an easy $400 + ship to him for speakers cost right of the bat

Any reason you don't just shoot for something like a 1960?

I was psyched to pre-order the Wizard Fuzz but I was worried I should have also ordered the Modded HM-2. Well after getting the Wizard Fuzz last night I am very very happy. Nick and Magic Pedals did a great job. It is everything I want in a fuzz pedal. I'll be selling a couple of my others off now as I expect the Wizard to be my #1. One thing that stands out to me about the Wizard is that both riffing and leads sound great without having to adjust anything, whereas with some other pedals it sounds like some treble tone is lost when playing leads compared to playing riffs. I am going to get a lot of use out of it.

But it would still be cool to own a Modded HM-2 so maybe next pre-order time if I have the money

I need a coffee table.

I probably am gonna just pick up a cheap solid 4x12. Gonna take a 5150 4x12 for a test drive tomorrow. But a guy can dream in the meantime, no? Just kind of a pipe dream for if I came into a chunk of change all of a sudden.

Heeeeyyy guys!

whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaattttttttttt

He's finally fortified with the liquor store.

I hate autocorrect Telecasters / masters the first time you put one together or try to tweak it can be kinda confusing and a pain in the ass, especially if you have a 3 saddle bridge. But once you figure out the lil tricks and do it a couple times it becomes super quick and easy. I find tele's take me about half the time to setup that it does a gibson style guitar, I can never get the bridge and tailpiece to be heights I'm happy with and have string clearance on the back of the bridge. Plus gibson necks seem to not like to get as straight as tele necks without alot of tweaking. Glad to hear you got the tele's pickups in and everything adjusted!! after having gone through that all ready you should find assembling and seting up the telemaster much easier!

Also it is surprisingly difficult to find a lot of used stuff I'm interested in around here, let alone for the right price. I don't know what "all day" some guys are talking about when they say you can find stuff all the time like that, but I guess around here either the right deals get snatched up or everyone's a shitty blues/country musician and has no interest in the loud

are we all friends on facebook? Si? No? I had to make an official account now since I got picked up by Oklahomas largest indoor gun range as part of their first Pro-Staff shooting team.

I experienced the same problem when I started looking for amp rigs on CL. All that ever seems to get offered around here are shitty solid-state/Line 6 combos.

hey up for sale is a 1992 crate 4x12 cab with terrible speakres in it ive had it for 15 years and it's stayed in pretty good condition so 900 is a fair price no lowballers

Pro CL tip, you'd do better if you listed it as "$900 OBO", because "or best offer" means $900 and UP.
