Just received this Tele UPS. Love it! Looks and sounds great!
Jack socket is tight. Had to give the cable connector a real good shove to get it to "snap" in. More so than my other Teles and strats. Very tight getting it out as well. Suppose beecause its new and thus tight? Anyone forsee problem with this? Will I eventually loosen the cup by thye pulling of the cable out of the tight jack?

Hey congratsss!!! try posting some pictures!!!

if you feel its really tight then you might want to take it off and bend the inside a little bit so it is not as hard as it is :)

I'll get some pictures. It's a beauty! Not only do I like playing it, it makes me happy just setting here looking at it as welll. Of all the guitars, this one feels right for me! (until I buy another :D ).

I always swap out the stock sockets for a Les Paul style Flat that is flush with the body. I believe these are much more sturdy and I never have any problems with cables.

That would be my assumption. It should get easier the more you use it.

Thanks all. I'll wait for it to loosen up with time. Better tight fit then loose one!
