GAS Alert!!!!

Welcome to the Telecaster enthusiasts' club.  Took me a long time to finally get one, having grown up with Strats and rarely ventured outside that format, but once I got my first Tele, I kicked myself for taking so long to get the memo.
 
Now this ... why couldn't this be offered in the builder? And as a 24" scale version? Just asking ...

Looks killer if you ask me.

Sold some drum stuff... was all set to go get a $200 SX tele (the 'Keef' model). When that nagging voice in my head said... you know in your hear you really want a 7.25" radius....

This guitar was also NOT supposed to be BK. I mean it's purty, but this was gonna be an ash slab. It also wasn't supposed to be a $500 guitar...  But daaaaaannng.... I'm such a sucker for BK. Every dang time.

A GOM winner from a few years back. Funny I don't remember seeing this. Then I realized I had a newborn in the house. Found this ironically looking for info on Tele bridge saddles. Only thing wrong with it is one extra string.

Woooowweeeeee

That particular neck is only about three hours of divorce attorney billable time.
 
I like the grain in #3. Also, it's the lightest but I don't know if it's advantageous to have more, or less, weight on a bass with that long neck.
 
Thanks, Rgand.  I should say it's a maple neck, so lesser weight is probably desirable.  No need to balance a heavy exotic.
