Thanks for the very detailed answer, mark, i appreciate it :drink: still need to think about it, apparently tokai are re-releasing the breezysound, so i'll wait to hear how much that'll cost first. :)

just to check, when you said that none of the teles you tried impressed you, are you implying that the one you built from the axetec parts does impress you?

:)

Yeah, it's pretty damn good - easily better than the Fender examples that I tried (I've taken care to set this up nicely, and we all know how factory setups can let a guitar down...)

Yeah, it's a nice one.

... maybe a self build..?  Although I suspect that my wife would divorce me first.

How are you finding the neck, Mark?  I'm considering picking one up for my CV Tele as the stock one is a bit thin.  I fancy something a bit chunkier.

How fat is the Fat C?

Well, it's way fatter than my Charvel and a little fatter than my Yam SG, if you tried them the other day.  I'll measure the depth for you, if you like, but it's one of those necks that somehow just "fits" - it's perfect for my palm.  I don't think that it's a fast neck, whatever that it, but the satin finish and the roundness of it makes it a superbly comfortable chord basher.

for the price, definitely.  Seventy-nine quid I paid.  That's not at all bad for a pretty decent neck.
