Couldn't you use some double sided tape or something and put it on and take it off as the feeling comes and goes?

Absolutely gorgeous, and I can't believe only one guy commented on that neck - WOW!

If that sounds half as good as it looks, you'll be awesome!

FWIW plate but not that weird shaped pickguard - use a mounting ring for the neck pickup.

I just figured that was a given.

for the love of God please don't put that pickguard on there...i won't sugar coat it one bit, with the guard it looks like crap, without the guard it looks KILLER!!! i'd also leave the control plate off since having a rear route and a control plate is pretty silly IMO. that's such a sweet top and nice color, show it all off and go for the clean look! don't hide it under crappy plastic or random hunks of metal that aren't needed!!

very sweet!!!

I agree with Mike. Plus, I think you'd have to have a luthier cut that section out, if you were to install the control plate, or will it work? Then, you'd have a control plate and a needless back plate. Also, the white pearl doesn't really go with the abalone fret markers....and IMO white pearl is getting a little passe' It was more popular in the early 90's. Black would look better, but my vote is for no plate and no guard. If you put a black JB in the bridge, you might want to leave the gold cover off the neck pickup too......but that will depend on how it looks with it on.

Wow, really nice. I like the guard and plate, but it is your axe. Killa flame top...something I would'nt mind in my all black herd. Nice concept Hoss...looks familiar. hehe

God... Up till a moment ago I thought that Teles were about the ugliest E. guitars I have seen... Man, this thing is gorgeous!!!

I say NO pickguard and definitely NO control plate!

THIS is the way it should be!!!

Gorgeous, simply gorgeous!

If this was right handed i'd be drooling.... just kidding.... i love the colour and the way the Cream binding really suits the finnish.... I have huge itch for bound teles, they have to be rear routed of course... The only thing i would of done different on this project if it was for myself was a neck humbucker and a Gibson toggle switch..... like the old Shecters

Drool......I love that! I'm torn on PG or not, but definately no control plate. I'd love that body routed for a pair of p90's.
