thats making me lean back toward the squier 51 idea - which was going to look like this



I do like the '51 Precision style scratchplate and control plate... on the other hand, it's neat to have the Tele control plate to mount the switch on!

well i have both a 51 and a tele chrome plate - but only a tele pickguard which is why i leaned that way.  although i will most likely be redesigning the pickguard anyway to fit the body better so i suppose that makes no difference now

esquire or not I think its missing a pickup!
Rise above the crowds
Wade through toxic clouds
Breach the outer sphere
The edge of all our fears

You've definetly made me warm to the idea of Esquireing my Classic Vibe Tele, its on the agenda.

Here are my tele's.  The sunburst with the Silvertone mini-HB is a 59 Esquire with a brown sugar bridge.  The buterscotch has the piledriver (with a slowhand neck).
So many pickups, so little time
