Default Got a new neck for my Squire Affinity Tele!
Flamed Maple neck came today coat about a C note but very nice just installed Fender Gold American Standard tuning machines.You have to line them up then press on them hard followed by a light strike from a rubber mallet ,which puts impressions in the lacquer for the pins.Then you remove the tuners and Mark the locations of the holes wuth a center punch .Drill the holes ,install the locking collars abd washers and you are done!
