Hey, guys and gals. My 50th birthday is coming up on Monday Feb. 12th. Mrs. MULLY has extended me 1200 dollars credit at Warmoth. I'm planning on an Inca Silver Telecaster, double bound in white. I'm not a fan of the Telecaster headstock so I'm planning on going with the Warhead. Most likely going with flame maple back with an ebony board, that could change though. I was wondering if anyone could share some photos of Tele's with Warhead necks?
Thanks in advance, and great to see everyone again!

Hey Mully!!  Good to see you buddy!  Ask me any tele question!... except what they look like with a warhead.  I think Cagey might be the best guy for that - I seem to recall that he's a warhead fan.

so... that 1200USD credit was reward for improving your health? Or was it just for being you?  :)

Whatcha say there, Mayfly! Nah, the 1200 is for my 50th birthday. Health is doing great though. Great to see you again too!!

Welcome back and look forward to seeing the build.

Welcome back. Happy birthday. 50 years. A new guitar for that is a very suitable gift. From the photos Stratamania posted, it'll look fine with the warhead headstock. Looking forward to watching your build.
 
Welcome back, and happy birthday!

As Trevor mentioned, I'm a huge fan of the Warhead and most of my Teles have them as I, too, am decidedly not a fan of the Tele headstock. This one happens to be my favorite...

...and this is a close-up of the headstock...

I buried the decal in the finish, which is just clear nitro.

Oh, I remember that "5 Miles West" guitar. Forgot that it had that headstock on it. Anyway, they look great with that headstock. I guess it's pretty much a done deal then on which head I'll go with. Now the wait begins. Thanks for posting these pics!!

Thanks, Cagey, the headstock looks great on the Tele. I really like that blue too. Great job. I'd also like to say thanks to Rgand above for the birthday wishes. Of course you guys will be informed every step of the way.

I LOVE inca silver. Can't wait to see this one done, and welcome back!
 
Happy Birthday, and welcome back. Looking forward to watching your birthday build. (I built a Strat for my 60th!)  :headbang:

Welcome back. Happy birthday.

maybe silver with darker double bound for contrast?

I feel ya, but, I gotta go with white. I love white too much. I thought about tortoise, but, white won out.

Can someone direct me to the build post or share any details of the "5 Miles West" Tele?  I LOVE IT! ...but I tried searching for it here on the forum and can't find any results under those search terms other than what's been shared here.  Thanks!
 
Look for posts by Kuro Uma.  Not necessarily sure the photos will come  up, since his builds all went down before Photobucket changed its free hosting regime.
