Upgrading a $169 Fender Squier Tele - Is it Worth it?

[@avi4767]

Its worth more than a custom shop tele now bc you put it together

[@ajshelton6011]

Thanks been contemplating upgrading mine

[@antonakis79ohyes]

Great work! I totally agree with your view on what gives a good guitar sound... Your upgraded guitar is just as good as any Fender, at least in the sound department! Subscribed, as I am a collector and I like to play and mod cheap guitars too! 👍

Thank you and welcome to the channel!

It's basic common sense. That's why I bought an Affinity Tele so I could experiment with the workings and settings to see what works for me. Also, the belly cut, colour sunburst and split shaft tuners were all a must for me.

That is my goal in life to demonstrate basic common sense.

Thanks for the video - and I also agree on what gives a good guitar sound

keep on the great vids! I just found you!

[@guitarcollectorguy]

Glad you like them!

[@Nugmania1]

Did you do a before and after? Also a better bridge would help as well, good job on the vid

[@guitarcollectorguy]

At the end of the video I have before and after audio.

[@guitarcollectorguy]

I have been trying to find a replacement bridge for a Squier that is a direct replacement.

For some reason I thought the hipshot tuners cost more than this guitar stock but I guess I was wrong

[@guitarcollectorguy]

They go for between $60 and $100.

[@BullFrog96]

@@guitarcollectorguy yeah I was thinking they were like a $200 set of tuners. Idk what world I have been living on lol

[@guitarcollectorguy]

@@BullFrog96 I think they have tuners in that price range. These are less though.

[@keithclark486]

Graphtech nut doesn't cost that much.

[@guitarcollectorguy]

That is a good idea.
