'63-Strat
Well-known member
I'm thinking of souping up my tele a bit. For reference it's a '63 custom shop closet classic that I got used, slapped some jumbo frets on it as soon as I got it. I like the stock CS '63 pickups in it for some things but not so much for others. Thinking of possibly routing it for a neck humbucker (was thinking a '59 as I consistently like those) and figured if I was doing that anyways, possibly a single sized bridge humbucker, and some coil taps. I really like how the guitar sounds acoustically, and plays great, just find it's not quite translating that plugged in how I'd like at times. And if doing all that, maybe some compensated brass saddles
Part of me thinks this is wrong to do that to a guitar like this, but I'd probably end up using it a lot more live if I did. Here's a pic:
