Re: Telegib like thing

I noticed a certain "snappiness" to them when I first tried them, but now they just feel normal.

I just refretted a buddies GMP that has seen hundreds of gigs, and he says he can't hear a difference with the stainless.

The fact is that refretting any guitar can alter the sound because of how the frets are installed, and I think people try to attribute that to the stainless wire.

The feel, and wear are just too good compared to nickel for me to ever go back. I wont pull out perfectly good nickel frets, but if a refret is needed, stainless it is.

I've wanted to build a TeleGib for ages and this thread isn't helping because that looks awesome!

****ing nice!

Interesting that you put the steel saddle under the high strings. I've only ever really seen that under the low strings to squeeze out a bit more twang.

I set mine up w brass under the Eb just because everyone else did. Hated it. Put steel under all six.

Nice! I've always been a big fan of the TeleGib style guitars! Of course, I'll let Estella here do the talking for that...

I had it on my "to do" list for as long, you just finished first.

Man, I have to say I think you were nuts for selling me that SG. I more or less put it back to stock, and have been rocking that thing ever since.

Glad you like it, but disappointed its stock, the look it had is what made it so cool and different from every other black SG. But its yours and as long as you're liking it, that's all that matters.

I did not need to see that at all. I have been thinking of making my ESP Tele a Tele-Gib. It already has a humbucker in the neck position.

I dropped in some '57 classics I had from my '05 custom shop SG, and a new bridge. I love the thing, even with the extra holes in the pickguard.
