We then take a look at the history of Fender's top loader Telecasters, and the possible reasons for changing the construction of them during that era. To reveal Fender's pattern, we analyze the models that featured toploading bridges beforehand, the Musicmaster, Duo Sonic, and the revamped 1957 Precision Bass. Gear used:2023 Danocaster Single-Cut with Budz 58 pickups. 6.4 pound, ash body, .91 maple V neck.Strings: D'Addario NYXL 95-44https://amzn.to/41rnl0VPick:Pick Boy Small Jazz, Tortoise Shell, 1.00mmEffects: Amp reverb2023 Headstrong Lil King amp with a 12" Alessandro 64 Speaker#askzac #danocaster   #toploaderTexas ToastThe #1 Country Music Podcast in Texas!Listen on: Apple Podcasts   SpotifySupport the show
