Anybody wants my Black Korina Tele? (unpainted)

Something Cool
[CHANGED MY MIND, I'LL FINISH IT. Leaving thread for pretty pictures]

  • Black Korina Body.
  • Maple boatneck with Brazilian Rosewood fretboard.
  • Fralin pickups.


The details:

The fret work is very very good, I'd say on the level of my Music Man. The nut is kinda annoyingly playable, will need slot height adjustment.

The neck pocket is so tight it easily holds the body when you lift the neck. Of course without causing any cracks on the edges either.

There is a scratch on the back of the headplate.

I have not done anything to these parts that would void the warranty.

Specs:
  • Black Korina Warmoth body
  • Warmoth telecaster neck
  • Brazilian rosewood fretboard
  • Boatneck ("V" shape)
  • 1.685" nut width (medium)
  • compound radius
  • medium jumbo frets
  • korian nut Warmoth installed (needs filing of nut slots)
  • includes: neck plate, neck screws, Vintage style tuners, ferrules
  • Lindy Fralin Vintage Telecaster neck and bridge pickups
  • paperwork with specs for Warmoth parts included (proof of Brazilian fretboard)
  • optional: vintage style "Fender" labeled steel bridge with compensated brass saddles (I prefer to keep this)

Man, I was really hoping to see this one finished.

I actually feel like I can do it now. I guess I was a little overworked and a day off helps.

Your guitars pick you, not the other way round, right?
