Question Tele Problems
My Fender Tele is my pride and joy (and the bulk of my student loan ) but one things getting up my tits.
When I bend the higher notes on the B and high E string, they cut out. *geeky examples*
Bending the 2nd octave G on the E string up to Bb, it kinda chokes at the top and leaves no sustain. Bending the 2nd octave B on the E string up to Db, it makes a horrible, 'squirrel hit by a car' squeak-noise, but no fucking Db.
Is it just me just being shite or the guitar - should i get someone to have a look at it? any thoughts?

sounds like you need to get the frets filed. take it to mike at rainbow, he'll do it.
either that, or it will just need a slight adjustment of either the truss rod or the action. cant really tell without seeing it.

i know this guy steve right? you'll find him down the alleyway between the post office and the ymca. now, he might be walking round circles mumbling when you see him but don't be put of just shout "steve, who likes chicken?" and you'll get his attention. explain the problem and he'll fix it for free.

sound control and rainbow music? pah who needs your "credentials" anyway
