Speaking as a dedicated Teleh8r, that isn't a tele. Its vaguely tele shaped - but its not a flat piece of wood, doesn't have the tele bridge therefore no icepicky twang, has fat belly carves etc. Its probably closer to a Godin LG :P
By that definition, you can no longer claim to own a Tele.
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

Ah so I'm right then, you do like this Tele? Albeit through a weak, barely sufficient disclaimer? :P

Ain't that the truth!
Useful for playing the theme to True Blood though. :P

That looks pretty sexy. What's up with the thing that's where the trem springs normally go? Some kinda tension adjuster?

Wow, that is gorgeous and lust sparking; I had seen the bound Strats from Fender and assumed that a bound Strat shape would naturally look arse, but that is how a bound S-type double cut should look.

I have one ASH, I'm saving for my next.
Tin arse!!
