Ironstone TE bridge pup is not trebly as you usually get on the Teles. Very round and warm sounding and can cut really well through anything unless there are 5 or 6 guitars in the mix In case of me getting a humbucker Telecaster I will certainly go for Ironstone again as so far Tony has not let me down with his Silvers for ST and Tele pups, all very dynamic and clear (except the Tele neck on its own but together with the bridge either in parallel or series is just a joy to play).Or even better, my ST-62 is already routed for a humbucker in the bridge! Get one there instead for anything Humbucker related! In that case Im fully covered!

My objective view on CST-24TP90 is; Great guitar for the money if you like this design and neck feel! These Roswell have been disappointing me yet again and better pups are needed imo. Electronics need re-soldering or just get some nicer pots and a better 3 way switch. The capacitor is some sort of brown thing and I could not read what it was! My subjective view on CST-224TP90 is; was so happy to send it back today and I can't wait for Thomann to give me back my money

But PRS/Fender style guitars are better for shredding due to easier frets access.... COME TO THE SHRED SIDE You said that P90s were bit too thin.. That means you have to try out the humbucker version now

It was properly intonated! The only way is to rout out the trem block cavity a bit to make more space.

So it's part of the design then. How very silly. Nah, that's more like manufacturing fault. Usually there is space between block and guitar body, it was not properly routed, hence why I said that it's pretty much a deco

On all my Strats, the screws were always as long as needed, so that I could set up the trem the way I wanted..... I just wonder why a strat trem on this jewel. A bigsby style would have fit so much better. .... Tough I'm not that found of trem use, I must say that if I hapen to have fun with Bigsbies on my guitars that have one, I just NEVER use the Strat trem .... whereas I have spent a lot of time setting them up

Thank Martin but Im staying away from angled Gibson style headstocks too! Anything, not born off Fender design ain't for me. Even the offset might not be for me as I couldn't bond with the G&L Fallout I had. Strat and Tele are my go-to guitars.
I would not mind a Tele with those Wide Range Humbuckers just to test that tone.
