Cory's not very happy with the TE-7 and I can't blame him.
A badly cut angled nut is not something easily replaced so the only options are to file it right or return the whole thing. He finds the guitar to be neck heavy (strange how neither HP42 nor the Guitar Geek said anything about this) and compares it to driving a lorry in his German version of the review. Well, I've been driving a Jazz Bass for the last two days. You ain't seen noffin', mate. I sympathise, though.
This guitar now has coil split. It's great except that it wasn't there in the first models (confirmed by the Guitar Geek after I asked), and it sounds… funny. Not very good. I have no idea why because these are supposed to be the same pick-ups as in the SC-7 and they sound nothing like that. Was something botched in the electronics? Cory's guitar had a grounding issue too.
Here's the coil split sound at 5:51:
And here's the SC-7 for comparison at 1:05:

One more string ... one more everything in the neck. And suddenly a Telecaster shape is losing its balance ? what a surprise

27" scale and a contoured body. It seems thinner too. If it was balanced before, then it is no longer.
