So what’s better than a telecaster ? A thinline telecaster of course . So the idea started after thinking about the mij thinline I sold . The wood choice what’s the real hard part what would the body be ? At first I thought ash but I argued with my self for a while over getting another ash tele. It’s like everyone has an ash tele I wanted something that would stand out ,something eye catching, something to make you go wow , something you could consider “guitar porn” my final choice was walnut . The pickups be seymour Duncan stl-1 and str-1 . Three barrel brass bridge , one volume and vary-tone switch like an es345 and 5 way switch . For a these combination .” Neck(alone ),bridge (alone),neck and bridge(normal ) , neck and bridge (out of phase) ,neck (52 blackguard mod),
schaller da vinci machine heads, Madagascar ebony on walnut neck. Yes I have a long process ahead of me but I think it will be worth the blood sweat an tears. I only have the body at the moment but the rest will come in due time . In the meanwhile enjoy these photos I have of what has been done so far.
