To repeat my post from the other thread(!) that looks terrific, I love the colour!  I didn't know Mastery made a Tele bridge.

thanks!

yeah mastery has a couple different tele bridges. this is the short one but they have a full plate version and they have optional brass saddles

Oh, that top look sooo good. Great job and choice!

That is a beauty. Really eye catching and original. I'd love to show up for a gig with that.

Great stuff. It certainly covers a lot of ground and looks fantastic. Nice playing btw. Yep I think that would do nicely.

2 Piledrivers in series?!

Sounds great with drive, but I in fact like the cleans too and I'm a sucker for vintage(hot) singlecoils. More modern than a BG, but still quite tele-esque. These Piledrivers sound very nice and quite versatile.

yeah i love how powerful these Piledrivers can be while still being able to have that tele style tone in the right situation. i'll definitely be doing more playing with it in different situations to show off the versatility some more. i was originally a little worrisome about putting the piledrivers in this wood combo but its working much better than expected. i like it even better than when i had them in alder.

to be fair, the neck is pretty low output. the tone in series is not overwhelming at all. its nice and fat.

I'm honestly not a fan of Teles but that one's a beauty. Best looking Tele I think I've ever seen.
