I'd flip that neck p/u, but otherwise it's hot!

Re: My upcomign Tele!

Thanks, but I can't really take much credit. Jeff Levenson (Fabgear) is doing the finish and assembly work, although in line with my ideas and direction. we're just trying to get the wiring sorted out.

No I know. It was just in that way for the pic. It'll be normal when it's done.

Re: My upcomign Tele!

When we went looking for bodies this was the lightest, but the 2nd most attractive. The really great looking one was about 6.5lbs. Too heavy.
