6. Nut is too narrow, neck butt is too wide, creating string cross tension
Wider nut, slimmer butt, and EMG pickups

7. Man, there's some Fender-hate goin' on!
I have two Fenders (a modded Strat & a Tele) and I love 'em both every bit as much as my Gibsons.

11. How 'bout boutique-y Tele remakes?


I'm ordinarily not crazy about the natural woodgrain finishes, but damn, that's a pretty thing...

10. I'd lower the prices.
I have two Fenders ('60 Strat and a '97 Tele) and I like them. They both sound and play great.

12. Reposition the vol. on the Strat
I like the guitar, but I couldn't go two measures without turning it down. I hate where that knob is.

14. Get rid of the big ass ugly plastic pick guards and go with more of a
rear mounted pick-up style instead of that ugly ass shite.
