Thanks. Wow this is nice. I assumed I’d be filing nut slots and adjusting the bridge tonight but the setup is spot on.
It has multiple personalities. It’ll do bright and twangy or clear and vocal but with the amp cranked it’s rude crude and socially unacceptable.
Super light. Haven’t weighed it yet but it’s definitely below 8 pounds. I’m guessing around 7.5.
Intonation on the straight bar bridge is not perfect but it’s close enough for rock n roll. The nut appears to be Tusq. The frets are plekked. Binding nibs are all there lol.
TV Yellow finish is outstanding. Two well-matched pieces and the grain clearly visible. Not a bright primary yellow but more subdued.

I had a cheap LP Jr faded with humbucker several years ago and I wasn’t all that impressed. This thing is in a whole different league.
