I May be Paranoid, but I'm not an Android.

It was a loooong time recording, but it's done!

The Telecaster Plus

Inspired by Greenwood.

So this is the original guitar.

It's a Squier Telecaster (Affinity Series) that I picked up for $180 from Amazon. It plays alright, but it needed...something. I figured that i would just gloss up the maple neck and make it nice and smooth. But it needed more than that. I wanted this guitar to roar like a lion. Then it dawned on me. A humbucker. It was actually inspired by Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood, (one of the greatest musicians alive). I wanted his roar.

So I went out and bought a Red Lace Sensor dually for around $90, also from Amazon. This is actually what is in his Tele.

$87.99

I loosened the pickguard a bit so i could fit a few of my heavy picks (or plectrums, as they say in Britain) inside. This is a habit of Jonny Greenwood.

This is the final product!

Notice the cut bridge. Also, remember to replace 250k potentiometers with 500k ones. 



Then, I plugged it in.

In The Beginnings

I needed to share. 

Everything expresses itself. "The force that created us is expressing itself through our existence."- John Frusciante 

My way of expression is music and art. I'd been doing this for years, I was in a band, wrote my own compositions, taught guitar, but I felt that I needed to expand my art beyond that. I realized that i need to share my expertise and gain knowledge from more people with the same passion as me.

    So I thought: "Hey, I should start a blog!" So here I am. Posts on this blog will be about music appreciation, genres, guitars, big projects, and music theory. I hope you enjoy reading!
