How do you like the sound and that reversed control plate?

I like the tones I'm getting . It is easier to control than the Taylor T-5 I had been using.
I always had to be careful about feedback with the T5 when doing any thing with higher gain single note stuff.The Tele doesn't have that problem at all. I play at church so I did not want to freak out the older crowd :lol:
as far as the reverse control plate , I had never owned a Tele before so I don't know any better.I always had Strats and LP's in my younger wilder days.The older I got the cooler I thought a Tele would be so I went for it and it was not a mistake.

That is a great mod, I've got the rose wood model, will be getting some classic tele knobs and flipping the control plate sometime soon.

Thanks for the compliments. I'm really geting into this modifying thing. About three weeks ago I swapped out the bridge pickup for a Seymour duncan Phatcat P-90. It has alot more clear sounding voice than the humbucker that came with the guitar new. I liked what it did so I ordered one for the neck position too.
