This hand-built guitar started life as an old coffee table from a garage sale, complete with scratches and cigarette burns. Beneath the surface, a beautiful solid piece of Mahogany, perfect for a guitar body. Here's the SG and more detail.
Features: Solid Mahogany sculpted body, two vintage-style, handwound humbuckers, tune-o-matic bridge, and solid stop tail. 24.75-inch scale, Mahogany-stained Maple neck with Rosewood fretboard. The neck was actually intended for set neck application and needed a bit of modification at the heel to fit my application which is a recessed conventional bolt-on contruction. Electronics include seperate volume and tone controls with three-way switch (neck, both, bridge pickups).
This guitar is a real joy to play; Nice big neck, amazing access to the lower registers, awesome sustain, lots of tonal possibilities, good weight distribution and balance.
Always wanted a Tele for countr-style music. For this one I choose an all-Maple design; 1.75 inches thick, solid Pacific Maple body, Stratocaster Maple neck with Maple fretboard and Vintage pickups. The electronics feature a five-way selector to use the pickups in combinations of parallel, series, in phased or out of phase. My custom, flamed Maple top, blonde Tele reproduction and closeup detail here.
The pickups are aftermarket reproductions of a Vintage Telecaster set (6.72K, 3.12H bridge, 6.68K, 2.05H neck).
