Hey folks,

I just bought a Highway One Telecaster With a custom relic job on the neck. It also got the Telecaster part of the decal sliced away, making it similar to a Nocaster neck. However, it is equipped with the schallers like on the American Standards. my question is, if I wanted to install a set of Kluson reissues, would there be any ugly holes from where the old tuners were? here is a picture of the guitar form the dealer's page:

I'm not sure, but I don't think there should be that much showing, if anything at all. Even if there was a visible screw hole or two, it might just add to that "relic" effect.

I'm pretty sure that none of the holes will be visual on this change.

Just change the tuners, if there is a hole you can either fill it with some wood fill or keep them showing which will add to the relic'd look. A true Road Warrior!
