I don't remember which video it was, but I LOL'd hard at the one that went like this... Aaron: [plays VH riff] Aaron: "Plus! It's versatile!" Aaron: [plays different VH riff] :ROFLMAO: Edit... Oh, nvm, he posted it above!

Either way... :love:🔥

That is a sexy looking Tele and a killer price too. Thanks for sharing. I've seen a lot of Koa which comes in a lot of different flavors, but this looks more like claro walnut than Koa. Regardless of what it is, that is a beautiful guitar.

I mean, define "play guitar"... Spends N-number of hours per week In a band Can play an A chord etc

I’ll check it out. Thanks! Any idea about how much lighter?

I have this one which I bought from Warmoth... https://warmoth.com/510ts-fe1

You are 100% right. The body I'm starting with is 3.53 lbs which, with my current parts, should yield a guitar somewhere in the 7.5 lbs which is pretty good, although, I'd ideally love to get it down to close to 7.

Wow, that is way lighter! It looks like they don't have much available on their site at the moment. I'll keep an eye out. Thanks for the recommendation!

I've got a few bodies with Gotoh 510t bridges and I'm wondering if anyone knows of a lighter-weight trem block I could switch with it...? I have some back pain from years of collision sports and shaving off a little weight (the guitar and also myself, frankly :LOL:) would be nice. I took off...

Bacon wrapped Strats! I really like the natural semi-gloss. It's hard to tell from the video, but it looks like it might be great for some types of wood and not others. Swamp Ash looks great, but I'm not sure about the Black Korina. Maybe in person it looks much better. I look forward to...

I was wondering when someone would snatch this one up. Such a good looking body. I would personally go chrome, but that's me.

Sweet! Bonus... I bet it could moonlight as a pickguard for a '57 Chevy!

Wow, I love a good Tiger's Eye! That looks great! What did you do for the back? Transparent Brown?

Thank you! :)

“I just want the traditional look.” - Aaron while holding a StratTele Hybrid :ROFLMAO: It sounded surprisingly good. I feel like these kinds of things typically are good at canceling hum but don’t sound good. I was pleasantly surprised.
