Lack of bell is not problem, just use a parallel 'plug in' extension bell without the need to 'mod' the Tele 248/BS44. |
Yes ,I have an extension bell, I just thought it would be nice to have an internal bell until I realised that it isn't quite internal due to the odd (in my mind) lead connecting the two. I didn't realise that the circuitry in the phones was different. I will leave well alone. I managed to find the correct connections on the bellset for the input lead (sorry I don't know the correct term for this) so the switches on the bellset actually do something.
