    The proof is in that awesome sound. Very unique tone to bring into the recipe that is purely Wendlo.

    My current hobby is stressing myself out over how to fit together knock-off parts that I bought from China. I think I'm getting the hang of it. I had plans for an offset tele but looks like the poorly routed body and the wrong type of bridge I chose are forcing me to go with a baritone telemaster shaped object.

      I had a habit of doing this for a long long time. Some things got completed some didn't. Some things sounded good, some didn't. None have me the amazing effects I had envisioned. So now I have a scrap heap of cheap guitars and cheap parts. I even ruined some nice guitars and nice parts. I burned through so much money. I legit had some kind of addiction. Now I just play my acoustic and don't chase tone.... But I'm already thinking of how I could improve upon what I've seen in this video. I might relapse.

    This is such a specific mod that it wouldn't be practical to the average player but I'll be damned if that isn't a sick guitar to keep around if you're a professional musician

    Super interesting. I wish there was more time spent playing. Id really like to hear single notes on the high e and b. They usually have that extremely chimey thin sound. I feel like this setup could really even that out.

  • @andyvandergriff
    @andyvandergriff 7 місяців тому +1

    I'd wonder if all you'd need with a string through Tele is just a 50's style tray bridge plate. Glue your rubber bridge in the tray in the proper place and then you've got some interchangeability. Want to get rid of the rubber bridge? Just change the plate out.

    I would tell you to check the intonation on each string but, I don’t think that is what you are going for. 😂 Nice sounds for sure!

    Tuning stability has gotta be a nightmare with all that friction from the rubber bridge + tremolo. I certainly appreciate the ingenuity though, and it's a very cool sound.

  • @jurassicpork765
    @jurassicpork765 Місяць тому

    Is it not a problem that the strings break from a straight line? Usually you adjust your saddles per string for intonation. If not, could you just swap something in and out above your existing saddles? I'd love to rig something with a lever that lets you engage the rubber saddle at will (and I'm not afraid of routing)

    • @pptemplar5840
      @pptemplar5840 9 місяців тому

      He cut the rubber, I assume he meant he cut it so that it matched the saddles on his previous setup? Honestly there are plenty of very primitive bridges that are just solid bone or wood, so if they can cut bone or wood so that it is intonated I don't see why you couldn't with rubber

    Was your tele a top loader? Is that why you needed a bigsby? Im a bit confused on that. Im thinking i might leave a gap in the rubber between the string holes so i can slide the strings through the bottem of the guitar without the need for a bigsby. Supper glue or smth 🤷‍♂️. Correct me on my ignorance.
