73 Tele.Mucho MoJo.It has a bit of genuine wear,BK Blackguards and has been routed for a hummer in the distant past.It sounds wonderful and is very light.I have two other Tele,this is my favorite,but  I think I migt trade it. I need a different guitar.

I love the character of your Telecaster  Marantz1300.  :)

I was also impressed with Captain Desslock's Funky Pink Guitar ( M.Q neck PU ? ) - and look forward to more pictures.
I know a chap that would just love that guitar, as he likes the less obvious - but still attractive ,  smile inducing stuff .

Also,  scrolling back - the lovely satin sheen and functional simplicity on ZF's PRS Singlecut.   :)

Sell another of your 3 teles (or two others if needed). I just can get why you'd trade your fav one when you have two others you like less ????

Bought off a forum member, since had a killswitch installed and moved the knobs around, gotten rid of the tone too.

It's nice....

Speaking form experience I would say don't trade it!! I sold my '75 tele and regret it a little. It did get me a CS Esquire though and this is a significantly better* guitar (I did a 3-way trade on the Esquire about 6 months after getting it and now am the proud owner of a CS Strat).

The other thing worth considering is are humbuckers really for you? I've tried and owned a few HB equipped guitars (PRS SC245, ES-335, LP Standard, Indie 523, Indie IPR500 (I think), Indie Dragon. Judging by the pics you have posted you seem to be a single coil man so really think hard and be absolutel sure about it.


* better = lighter, more resonant, easier to play, more open sounding and looks very cool.
I think I hate being indecisive.

That's not pink. This is pink ;)


The blue one is my favourite guitar. It's not the one i play the most, that would be my iceman (which is currently getting BKP cold sweats fitted). But, if I had to save one guitar from a fire. It would be my blue Patrick Eggle. We've got a lot of history. I've owned it for 17 years. Made quite a bit of cash playing it, and I LOVE it.
