  1. I took this along to band practice last night, and it's quite the guitar now! My main concern was that it would lose that immediate Tele tone with the pickup swap, but as soon as I had it plugged into the and played a chord it sound very much like a Telecaster. Except, it's noiseless and can handle a tonne of fuzz. Saying that, it still sounds very different to my Strat when it's being subjected to so much gain, a much more precise tone, which of course means it's very unforgiving when I make a (very occasional) mistake. It certainly lets you know about it! I need to raise the action a wee bit, as it was fretting out at the higher registers, somewhat hampering my insane biddlies. Not something I ever worried about in Panda Eyes. Plus, it's much more difficult to do pinch harmonics. By the end of practice, I was getting them though.

    How you find the pickup covers, I find lace sensors spoil the natural look of a tele. I believe other companies offer their versions of noiseless pickups with exposed pole pieces. some probably like the look and some don't

  2. I spent a year learning music to grade 3 level, I wasn't amazing at it but learned enough to grasp the concept of it.

     

    reading and writing was no problem, I found it hard applying my learning of notation to problems in work books. Things such rewriting a piece from simple time to compound time or vise versa, they would always throw in a piece with multiple rests and stuff to throw you off.

    Wheel of harmony was my greatest kinda light bulb moment
