Had to take my Telecaster into the local shop to get a set-up. Ended up on the highlight reel:https://www.instagram.com/p/CLppCMGA_vE/

Some good stuff upthread about guitar tuning. I have been thinking a lot lately about how insane guitar tuning drives me. I really hate the damned instrument sometimes.

I found that all my tuning angst just evaporated when I switched to using a wound G, after all the Telecaster is designed for it (as are all the original Fenders, e.g. staggered polepieces, three saddle bridge etc.). Still have issues at times but nothing like the “this will never be quite right” feeling with a plain G.

Posted this on the early Petty thread - the band is totally killing it while Mike Campbell runs through everything a Telecaster can do in 4m11s
