Fried Tele - are ya feeling it?

[simple]

We've all done the burnt wood thing on school projects and the like, how about on a Tele? We could clear it, burst it, trans it....what do you think?

 

[jimh]

Maybe a light brown tint, then clear.  It'd look like snakeskin.  I like it.

 

[ocguy106]

trans tobacco burst I think

 

[Velcro]

There two guys stole the words from my mouth.

 

[AutoBat]

^^yes

 

[Watershed]

Looks great.

Helps that it a great looking piece of ash...
Who can resist a great piece of ash?

Ahh, I'm tired.

 

[rapfohl09]

Yes....just yes.


Reminds me of T50's AMAZING star guitar. I have wanted a burnt ash guitar for so long.

Trans Tobacco Burst or Trans Amber

 

[Kublai]

That isn't for me. But I applaud the fact that Warmoth continues to try new things.

I have a Jazzmaster that is being finished this way.  Gain filling/leveling is a nightmare, but it looks good.  I dunno what I am going to do.  Prolly just some amber sanding sealer and then an easy to build up clear.  Hopefully I'll have it ready this summer.

I like it!!
I recently fried a squier, but a fried Warmoth is even better!!

I agree with most on tobacco or trans amber!

um . . . . I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess the'd look burnt.

How about a matching burnt Maple/Maple neck to go with it?

 

[m4rk0]

will the burnt maple necks just be lightly toasted, like the body, or will they be roasted, like the MusicMan necks, or the chocolate necks? (was it anderson? or suhr? Charvel?)

I don't know about the others, but I know Suhr is roasting necks:

I'd love to try one out.

:doh: Thank you

But really, different woods with the same finishes can look completely different. Same thing applies here

Put your hands in the air and step away from the matches.
