I've seen those a few times and the seem like a cool idea, but something just doesn't quite do it for me. If the bottom half was still contoured like a strat it would be better to my eye. The Jazzmaster/Tele one comes together so much more ... rightly, if you know what I mean 8)

Hurdy Gurdy.... some how... and I'm not entirely certain how mind you, an instrument that sounds like someone has shoved a nest of angry hornets into a goose with a kazoo bill and is randomly slapping the poor creature with an accordion.... Sounds amazing.

Yeah, DAG is like a Mecca of uber-guitars. All ridiculously expensive, but immaculately crafted.

Boy, that sure is a lot of money for a beat-up, largely inaccurate Strat copy! *ducks for cover as Ash starts throwing blocks of mahogany*

If they do, would they be a Strele, or a Teat? Actually, I could play with a Teat for hours...

I can't stop thinking about that thing...I've got an old Jagmaster that might get the telemaster / jazzcaster treatment. Only tricky thing will be the pickguard.
