Awesome vid. I play my Martins and on occasion my Strat; I have no interest in getting a Tele, until I saw this vid. Love the history and the romantic aspect of this instrument.
Original guitars…1950-1953 were almost white in colour…they were never ‘butterscotch’. The clear lacquer ‘ambered’ when exposed to UV light, smoke etc…and they eventually aged towards that butterscotch we all are familiar with. Leo did not use furniture finishes! They were Autobody paints ‘inspired’ by the Scandinavian furniture blonde finishes.
No disrespect intended! But your explanation of the Broadcaster ‘blend’ circuit seems incorrect? Maybe just camera performance nerves? Bridge position is the ‘blend’ of the neck….no tone control….middle is not the ‘blend’. Middle position is neck pickup without tone. Neck or ‘front’ position is neck pickup without tone a tone capacitor(mud).
