[the invisib1e hand]

Can't bring myself to get a tele, but if I did, it would be setup as you describe - that's the "Nashville" thing, right?

Johnny Winter once said he just couldn't play a strat. Loved the sound, but the pickups always interfered with his hand. It is an issue.

Anyway, every true Tele man knows about this site.

Yup. Nashville Teles. Don’t buy the hype about made in USA vs Made in Mexico. I’ll take my Tex-Mex Nashville teles over US Tele Standards any day. Awesome guitars. Built solid. Great sound.
