I am really liking the setlist you shared. This would have been a really fun show! I gotta share this; when I was in Jr. High School way back when... the local Pizza place was named "Jenny's Pizza." And yes, they got THE number. Back then you didn't dial area code for local in the US. Everyone knew the number for Jenny's Pizza by heart.

Well, that was an awesome night. You worked hard. Used the bridge mostly and split. Saw it in the middle once. Westcreek should put some of that as a video on their Amazon ads. They emailed me to find out what my issues were with my guitar after I posted issues with it on my Amazon review. It basically amounted to duplicate everything you also found. Except for the difference of raised Frets and fret ends on my neck

You’re actually gigging with an HSS Strat instead of a Tele?!?!? 😮 WOW!!!! I was NOT expecting to see this! 😂 It sounds pretty good on the gig, too! Hopefully the TT-20 will be even better-there’s obviously less that can go wrong or need setup and adjustment on a Telecaster-style guitar, like the vibrato springs.

Hahaha well it's just logic... A good guitar means many things to different people: Plays well Sounds good Low action Holds tune Light / heavy Wood type The shape Type of pickups Fit and finish Fret type / fretboard type Neck shape Fretboard radius Etc... etc... etc... The print on the headstock doesn't make the guitar good... However, for many, it does set an expectation or an association to a good guitar. Known Brand name = good and an unknown = bad. I don't care about the name on the headstock. I like dissecting a guitar, setting it up, and taking it to a 3-4 hour gig. Any guitar that can get through a 3 hour gig with 0 issues and I don't have to fight with it all night, is a good guitar.. period! So yeah, if YOU like it, it's a good guitar! 👍😎

It still has some Tele quack. FYI, I texted & emailed you some info about the new Westcreek T-style guitars. Happy Father’s Day’s J

@@johnjolly9519 yes it does have some tele characteristics for sure... yup got the texts, but for some reason, your texts are coming through my e-mail and I can't reply. Those TT models look good. Once they're available here I'll grab one or 3! Lol

Nice job. Great concert, i am sure. You sounded great. Maybe you can put your phone video in front of your monitor speaker to capture the sound of the instruments . Good job.👍

Yeah possibly... But only Vocals are in the monitors... Guitar and bass stage volume is just through our amps, and drums well everybody hears those hahaha!

@@j-man9457 have you seen that "teaser" film by westcreek with the blue one? sounds sweet to me! i have a great subject for a future film(love to see you cover it)....a workmate asked me if a guitar sounds diffrent in the summer than it does in winter...he didnt specify either acoustic or electric... hes a sax player and said they(saxaphone) sound diffrent in hot and cold...something going on with the reed he said...

@@birdman316 I des. The TT-50. Looks cool! Nah guitars wouldn't change because they have electric. pickups. Maybe the wood will expand in the summer and shrink in the winter due to humidity levels changing but sound wise, nope... Now an acoustic, quite possible🤔
I got the same one for Father's Day. Just had to drop the action, a new set of strings & we're in business. Did you see the JX-50 announcement?

@j-man9457 the TT model.looks great too haha. The JX-50 caught my eye due to the 3 way switch. I prefer that, but no doubt love the look of this one. More westcreeks in the future haha

Love the video, I’m just wondering with the price of the guitar and all the work that you did, what price would you put on the guitar now. If I had to pay someone to do all of the work that you did, .

Hmmm good question. I did a lot of extra work because I'm just fussy haha... All it really needed is better springs, the nut cleaned up, frets polished and of course a set up... Here in Canada these are 300. So I'd say probably around 450 for parts and labour?!🤔 And that of course depends where you take it... And also assuming yours has the same issues as mine. Yours could be flawless, or could be worse hahaha one never knows
Nice J-man what pickup location did you play most often?? Just curious .....
