I was seriously considering pulling the trigger on one of the Telemaster copies . Read a lot what's been posted but no real current personal reviews . Any good ? Worth modding ?

They're that snobby over there? Whatever happened to just owning and playing cool guitars?

Damn, the Telemaster looks like a sweet piece of guitar.

I've got one of the jazzmaster copies, It's pretty good. The body had no finish flaws but whatever wood it's made of is easy to dent. The neck is good, definitely chunky. The tuners are decent, but the graphite nut is what makes it better than most budget guitars (as far as tuning stability goes).

Not banned, they asked me to change it due to its hideous offensiveness, which I wasn't really bothered about doing, it's just a name etc, but they don't give users the ability to change their own names. So after several ill thought out PMs from them and several baffled PMs from me in reply I just told them to delete my account and be done with it. I couldn't handle the crushing combination of over sensitivity and lack of thought process from the people there, or at least those who ran it. A nice guitar is a nice guitar, but a nice guitar owned by a cretin is a waste, so looking at all the pretty pictures would feel redundant.

DUDE , IT'S A PUBLIC FORUM ! WHY DO PEOPLE HAVE TO GET THEIR PANTIES IN A BUNCH OVER STUPID SHIT ?!!! You got shit for you user name being "offensive" ? To who ? Because they got " Offended by seeing your user name ? Bob Arse Cakes ? Please can someone press the FUN button over there ?

You know what ? Can I change my screen name to "NappyHeadedCrackWhore" ?

I can say I haven't had a problem there but after finding this I will certainly refrain from any any " Offensiveness " .

Talkbass can be silly like that . I said a little cussy and got a nasty gram saying if I continue using profanity they will delete me . All I said was " Fucking Sweet " . I mean, C'mon ! Then they changed it to " ****** Sweet " . Golly Willikers .

you'd think if they had a problem with profanity they'd just setup a word filter.
