I often think that with 2 more Korina Teles, I would never need another electric.
One with 2 Humbuckers and another with 2 P90's.

Why is it that in all of Fender's Artist issue guitars, John Jorgenson is the only one with the vision to specify a Korina Telecaster?

If you're gonna start a George Michael tribute band, there's one thing you absolutely must have. A gleaming white guitar covered in gold bling named Faith.

The same format is probably also useful for other endeavours on a rainy Sunday, but that's someone else's story...

Behold:

Image

Mahogany body with maple top carved inside and out and bloodwood binding around the top edge

Image

Mahogany neck, ebony fretboard, bloodwood binding, white and gold mother of pearl inlays

Image

Lollar Imperial humbuckers through a 3-way switch, each with its own series/split/parallel miniswitch and a push-pull tone pot that gives both HBs in series (BOOM!)

Image

Schaller Les-Trem for the wobbly stuff at one end

Image

Gotoh locking tuners at the other.

It's like a Parker Fly had sex with Brian May's Red Special and then got ordained by P.Diddy! :lol:

Congrats to the new owner, the specs + Adrian's luthiery magic = one good sounding guitar, I would expect.

Sounds awesome... plays beautifully.
Lots of delicious pickup combinations to play with... a truly awesome result to a 5 year long dream and design... finally turned into timber!
Thanks Adrian, stunning work, as always :)
