I have the 6130's (gibson size, low & wide) on my main tele with Warmoth's 10-16' radius and love that setup.  Comfy for chording and leads, gettin' some nice fretboard wear (thin coat of satin spray nitro on it).  But I'm always looking to slightly change what works for me, so I don't have...

what size frets you have on that tele neck?  Looks like you get alot of finger/fretboard contact.  I'm worried that won't happen w/ the neck I got yesterday from Warmoth-- those 6100's are huge!  I wonder how much fingerboard wear I can expect with frets that big...

I took my warmoth teak  strat neck w/ ebony fretboard off of my tele body and decided to follow the instructions to reset the side adjust for the truss rod so that I could store it away safely for the winter and use it next year on another project.  I loosened the heel adjust per the...
