You finally got her out of hock. LOL. I would not hesitate to put the 10s on. It really brings this guitar to life.
What do you think about the position dots on the side of the guitar. I use them a lot and I find that they are really hard to see on this Tele. I had heard that teles are hard to get the intonation set on them because of the saddles sharing two strings.
Mine had a pro set up before I got it and the intonation is spot on. From my experience I think you will really like the pickups in this one. They are really sweet.
As for the case. I spent 75 dollars a while back for one of those sightly used cases. Yours is a good deal for sure. I like the hard plastic case to keep the necks firmly in place. The averqge home has so many fluctuations in heat and cold it keeps them straight.
The Blues is alright!
