Got my TE-52 back from the luthier. He polished the frets and got rid of the fret sprout as well, put a set of EB Super Slinkies on (9). Whole procedure was cheap and only took a few hours.
However the action is still high. I was in a rush and stupid enough not the check it at the shop.
Gonna fiddle a bit with the truss rod I guess. The whole thing is a LOT more playable now though, it's very comfy, but I need those strings to be a bit lower.
Will post some proper pics later on.
Also, next project is to strip my Strat copy of its black paint and have a natural wooden finish on it instead.
