I hate playing teles the distance between the strings, though not too different from other guitars, is really noticeable/awkward for me when playing them.

Brock and i played an LG Signature..little out of my range but i liked it (besides the switch being a little off). i just wonder how diff the sig is from the performance model. kinda sucks that i cant have them order the performance unless im gonna burn a 70 buck restock fee. Unless i play one in houston or san antonio of course blah
