been studying teles alot lately, here is what I'm finding:
I LOVE the tone of the Nocasters I've played. Amazing! But I HATE the vintage radius. It's comfy down low, but anything past the fifth fret and the expression on my face looks like i'm suddenly very constipated. I DO like the vintage saddles. So, basically, I like everything about the Nocaster except the radius. What can I do about that? I need a 9.5 at least. Do I need to go to Suhr? Do I just get an aftermarket neck and slap it on the Nocaster (will that destroy the mojo tone??!)
None of the other Fenders do the trick for one reason or another (nice radius, but not vintage saddle, etc.)
Or am i just not worthy of playing a tele cuz i don't like the vintage radius???
