That bridge design is legitimately quite clever. It's got full adjustment, but all the bits could be made with stuff bought from a hardware store and it doesn't have the issue that telecaster top loaders have where the string always goes underneath the saddle instead of over it

[@petrekguitars]

Thanks for your Feedback. Yes this is really effective. Quite a lot nice details on this Telecaster copy. Best Regards Nik

Happy that the cracks were just in the lacquer! I always regarded these plywood necks - that also Framus used back then - as quite durable! Really a beautiful guitar! 😍

Ist ja geil! Ich hab eine Hoyer Strat Kopie aus der gleichen Epoche. Allerdings war das gute Stück in einem weitaus desolateren Zustand und lag über gut 10 Jahre teilzerlegt im Keller rum. Ich könnte ne lustige Geschichte drüber erzählen, jedenfalls wurde sie mit minimalistischsten, dafür aber weitgehend vorhandenen wieder in einen brauchbaren Zustand versetzt. Schönes Teil! Liebe Grüße aus dem Saarland.

[@petrekguitars]

Hey, das hört sich sehr interessant an. Wünsche noch ganz viel Freude mit deiner Strat ist bestimmt auch ein tolles Instrument. Herzliche Grüße ins Saarland Nik

Interesting, i got the same Hoyer telecaster from late 60s or early 70s, during the eighties i replaced the tuners with schaller tuners and installed an out of phase switch for the two singlecoils via a push pull pot which gave nice extra sound options. It still holds up nicely, thx for the video. Cheers

Such a cool guitar!

[@petrekguitars]

Yes that’s a great Instrument. Thanks for your watching and your feedback. Best Regards Nik

[@2000SkyView]

Frankin Tele - head stock is too small - wow, so many stress cracks in that neck - might need new frets soon. Sounds real nice!

[@petrekguitars]

Thanks for your feedback. This is a multiplex wood Neck very stiff and solid. Yes you are correct the Frets are worn out. Here is a Video we’re I have replaced the 😉👍 kzbin.info/www/bejne/hHazo52DlLJlpKssi=BE-IAEuJ3vhx-Gy7 Best Regards Nik

[@UndeathSilence]

Daaamn those frets are for changing . I would have put jumbo frets on it . But maybe the owner didn't want that ?

[@petrekguitars]

Yes that’s absolutely correct Sergio. First we try keep the investment low. Maybe there will be a upgrade with new frets 👍Best Regards Nik

[@dannork1240]

You do such good work I wish I could send my guitar to you to fix… too bad I’m 8000km away

[@ast3663]

great vintage guitar..der Hals scheint aus sandwich-Holzlagen zu bestehen, interessant

[@petrekguitars]

Thanks a lot. Best Regards Nik

[@Adonix00]

Hi Nik. Great job! Thanks for sharing your work with us. Just one question: what is the liquid you put after sanding the excess of glue in the headstock crack? Maybe a future video talking about the products you use? Thanks and kindest regards. Antonio

[@petrekguitars]

Thanks a lot fr watching and for your question. I use Ballistol Weapon Oil for the process. You are welcome. Best Regards Nik

[@micmacnz]

How was the bridge earthed? I didn't see an earthing wire

[@petrekguitars]

It's been quite a while since I done this Repair but I remember there was a ground wire underneath the Bridge. Best Regards Nik

[@Jackofallthetrades]

Very nice job! Out of curiosity, why did you replace the tuner screws with new screws? Were the old ones too far stripped?

[@petrekguitars]

Thanks for watching and for your question. The screws were a bit to oversized and the crack II glue is because of them so I decided to change them to a smaller size and like the originals without a cross... Best Regards Nik

[@micmacnz]

Bet that multilaminate neck is a damn sight more stable than anything Fender or Gibson made

[@petrekguitars]

Yes you are absolutely correct. This is a really stiff construction. Best Regards Nik

[@licosaenz]

Instead of removing the control plate, just leave it on, and pry the knobs from the potentiometers using two spoons in opposition, under the knobs. Then remove the control plate.

[@petrekguitars]

Thanks a lot for sharing... that's a good way to remove them. Best Regards Nik

[@GC-re3gm]
