almost finished my plan for first W, tele project, plan is to start ordering after assessing funds early next year (post-christmas)
let me know what you think :laughing7:
BODY
-black korina/black korina hollow tele (rear routed with f-hole)
-tung oil finish
-top binding (black)
-HxP-90xH route : vintage vibe humbucking p-90s (ceramic magnets, hot winding, with coil tap switches), vintage vibe vintage p-90
-black hardware, three volume/tone (concentric pots)
-recessed TOM with string thru mount (heres where the indecision lies...)
Because my dial-up sucks, and Kisekae don't work on it, what's peoples opinions on shape of string thru? Im thinking either arched or slanted, not keen on staggered. And, do you seperately purchase string thru ferrules? Maybe i'm blind, but it doesn't seem to specify..
neck is still in the air, any 2 cents much appreciated :hello2:
NECK
-25.5" pro jackson/tele neck, fatback contour (still deciding which peghead)
-wenge/ebony (raw, baby, raw!!!)
-block or shark fin inlays (depending on peghead)
-SS6105
-planet waves auto-trim lock tuners (anybody had experience with??)
-graphtec nut, width 1 11/16
so what does everyone think? Im going for a big, open, raw, nice and versatile axe. Needs to be able to get very hot, and very warm very quick (hence the ceramic humbuckingp-90s and vintage soapbar). I have had experience with vintage vibe pickups and they rule, so thats pretty set. never used coil taps, like the idea though. any thoughts on coil tap?
might have problems with neck dive though :icon_scratch: which could be an issue, if i move the rear strapbutton further UP the body, would this help maybe?
this has taken me MONTHS of indecision to come to this conclusion so far, so any 2 (or 3) cents would be killer. :toothy12:
thanks guys
