Hey radies
I've got a question
and you may give me a silly
look for it but I really don't know

first of all, Do any Mex tele's come in an HS config?
because from what I've seen if they do, then it's
been aftermarketly done and such

if this is the case, how much would it cost for
me to buy some lace sensor pick ups
and have them installed into a mex tele
into a HS configuration like thing?

if you get what I mean?
maybe I have no idea what I'm
even asking myself, fuck

If you want the double coil at the neck end, thats easy and would cost about $60 to install if you supply the pickups. If you want to do that at the bridge position, thats a bit more tricky because of the bridge pickup mounting arrangement, but can be done if neccesary.

I don't know what Lace Sensors go for, but there are a few others here who have bought some recently who could tell you.

Yeah, I'd probably get it put in the neck
it's not a reality at the moment, just a small
kind of general inquiry at this point in time and such

Mine came like that though - as in it was made that way, and it is a USA. Here is a link to the Harmony Central reviews of the model:

If you have another look youll see that first bid will meet the reserve. That should answer your question.

In the current catalogue, there's a '72 Tele Custom MIM with HS config. Model #013-750X .

There's an Ameeican series Telecaster HS model 011-8662

the Aerodyne Tele 025-6605-506

Squier Std Fat Tele is HS 032-1300

I may have missed some...

That's so nice
I want it so badly
but alas I am a bit poor
at the moment

and also, Rogwise
the plan is to buy a cheap
squire Fat tele until I come
into some money which is when
hopefully the std. tele comes into play
