it certainly looks sexy, how much did it cost? and how come master volume and master tone. rather than one for each?

its for sale ... probably $1400 incl hardcase.

Went with only one vol and tone as its a combo of various tele styles, with the hardtail bridge, 2 P90's, Tele Custom Pickguard shape and 3 way toggle switch... :)

hey not bad for a tele - it has P90's which have been the shiz for a long time mate ;)

I'd have to take a grinder and carve out a belly rout....

Oh God BG! How could you even think of doing such a thing?

Surely having a little lypo would be kinder to the guitar.

Indeed, P-90's have always been the schizzle - Gibson offered them as a cheaper alternative to the Humbucker and frankly, they are a more versatile and better sounding pickup in my view.

Guitar looks great - a Tele frame (neck/body) is a great canvas for many a pickup/bridge/control config....prob the most versatile combination ever!

I have not had a P-90 experience, well at least not knowingly. Why are they favored so much by some? If they are in between a HB and a Single coil doe sthat mean they cannot do either just an inbetween? How do they respond to a boost pedal, does that make them sound more like a HB? If you take a single and boost it with a pedal, which fattens it up, does that sound like a P-90? Ok enough questions for the moment.
