How to Fit a modern Telecaster Bridge on ANY Telecaster

In this video the strings are going on. I have to overcome some serious Telecaster bridge problems though ...... with fishing gear ;) - and surprisingly it works great 😊 . I’m building my version of the Andy Summers Telecaster and this is the video where the strings are going on for the first time. I have to overcome some string through holes issues first though. The pre-drilled string through holes didn’t fit the placement of the all brass modern Tele bridge I want to install. So I had to get creative :) If you want to boost your telecaster check out how I did it.

I’m a guitar building beginner and I have been following The Great Guitar Build Off competition 2020. I learned a lot from the competitors and that inspired me greatly to build a guitar myself. I built my first guitar under lockdown last summer 2020 and guitar building kind of hooked me. You can watch first guitar build right here: I have bought a neck from and the body is built of old pine wood floor boards from a house built in 1808. Why is that a good thing? Because old wood is cool ... and also more resonant. The point is to learn how to build great guitars. It can’t be rocket science, but it’s fascinating. My plan is to learn from the best by researching materials, components, and methods. Music: - All music on my videos is composed, recorded and played by me. Services: When I’m not building guitars I’m a composer and video editor.
