thats NICE - would look better with a bakelite guard though, not keen on those El Dorado scratchplates (love their straps though, owed one for around ten years now).

that reminds me of stuff done by a fella called orgmorg over at PG


he mainly builds stuff from reclaimed wood such as old barns.  i think its great because i am still not sure how he manages to get it into a guitar without loosing the 'old barn' character

I am with you on that. The scratchplate is a bit too "country" for me (and I like old-time country) but I am gassing hard on the rest of that guitar.

I had long decided that the '69 Esquire I will build will have a Bigsby, but now I am wishing I didn't have some other projects to attend to first.

price is - of course - a little high... 1800$, but the look is really striking!
i love these evil looking things... rusty iron, worn barn wood...

i hate saying it, but i feel incoming GAS...

I like telecasters, but when I stop and pause to actually look at them, its like the.....funny in the face sibling you love anyways cause there good on the inside? As in good like juicy tele tone good? Just sayin...............

No.   They don't look any weirder than any other guitar does if you stare at it long enough.

I don't expect everyone to agree....

Leo got it right first time with the Tele - the looks, the feel, the tone (except the neck pickup of course).  I'll say we're talking Broadcasters/Esquires here anyway, one pickup all the way.
