Show Off Your TELECASTERS!!!

Re: Show Off Your TELECASTERS!!!

Ex Pete Doharty 78 with Bareknuckle Flat 50's.
I still have the six saddle bridge and original pickups it came with.




 
Re: Show Off Your TELECASTERS!!!

I need to update my presence in this thread, since my previously posted tele now has a Bigsby and I've added another!

Is that a Coffin Case brand case? I don't think I ever saw one in white!

Here's my Tele, Bettie (named after 50s glamour model Bettie Page).

Rotation of Bettie 1 sm.jpg

2011 Squier standard Tele (body and bridge), Fender standard Tele neck, GFS Lil' Punchers Humbuckers. In one position, the small toggle bypasses a coil on each pick up for single coil mode. In another it bypasses the coils with capacitors. Center is normal HB mode. The capacitor idea was copied off a Fender HH Tele (American Deluxe I think) that used an S-1 switch to accomplish it. Haven't found that mode to be particularly useful though.

Well it's Tele Tuesday! (At least for a couple more hours...)

Top: Partscaster with Mighty Mite Body, vintage style neck (not sure on brand, but its a beefy neck), Wilkinson bridge, Wilkinson locking tuners, CTS Pots, 4-way switch, Benson Custom hand-wound bridge pickup, and a Fender Twisted Tele neck pickup. (I think I'm going to put a smaller profile Mighty Mite neck with a maple board on it, and maybe a strat pup in the neck slot.)

Bottom: '94 American Standard Tele (all stock)

Oh cool. Bettie Page! yeah, they make white coffn cases. I need to get one more. They fit odd guitars like BC rich real well. Aso, I want to put two by the door on Halloween with doll corpses.
 
Re: Show Off Your TELECASTERS!!!

Here is my new Tele project it still needs to be wet sanded, cleared and buffed. This poor guitar has gone through a war.

I swapped out a lot of stuff. So here's a list of the new parts.
New Fender bridge. Same thing that comes stock on MiM teles.
DiMarzio Tone Zone T bridge pickup.
GFS FAT PAT, with a Gibson cover on it, neck pickup.
500k pots with a push/pull on the tone and a .022 cap.
New 3 ply bwb pickguard to fit the humbucker.
Dunlop Straplok strap buttons.
Electrosocket jack cup with a Switchcraft jack.

Current look:

Push/pull pot on the tone control to split both pickups.

Electrosocket jack. A great idea for Tele owners.
