Funny you should say...... You are spot on, teles are fairly easy to tweak to make a bit different. Although would rather have stuck in filtertrons (or those Z90's that TMcB had for sale), I've gone for the GFS version that seem to get decent reviews and meets my budget to build for a price I could reasonably sell it for (I hope). All part of that crap shoot that Handsoffmatt mentions!kdawg2a wrote:I can't help but think how good a telecaster is a a platform for this kind of thing. They seem to lend themselves well to pick up mods and wood choices and they are very easy to work with. You already like the scale length and they're very easy to build.
Its a crap pic, but currently just quickly chucked together waiting for some tuners to check everything lines up and intonates etc, then needs some touch up shaping on the neck and rear neck/body joint (its got ferrules not a plate), final sand and paint a kind of daphne blue!
