I dig the brass guard!
THIS should be the cover of a book on the Telecaster platform! Really beautiful, Spud.
You are now my new favorite Warmothian! Thank you for the kind words.THIS should be the cover of a book on the Telecaster platform! Really beautiful, Spud.

Very nice!SOOOOO... Telecaster be! This is my humble stash of 'em... and a 4th one coming with 2 Lollar Charlie Christian neck and middle + B.S. bridge... as soon as I manage to get enough money for a body. Promise!
The GREEN one was an unplanned child! Somebody was selling the body which was originally carved for 2 P90s... and as often happens... the unplanned turned out to be a fantastic one! Two Seymour Duncan Antiquity P90s on it and this thing screams or jazz out like nuthin' else.
The KORINA is an eugenetic experiment! It has a Gibson scale neck and WICKED T pickups. This can twang or truly sound like a Gibson ES175.
The RED girl was a Warmoth hybrid body Tele on sale I just couldn't miss for the asking price. Put two Lollar Imperials regular wind on it and turned out to be a real musical thing. Love the two volume pots setup like on my LP and 335 'cuz lots of hidden magic tones dwell in the mid PUs position with slightly offset levels... as I'm sure many of you know well.

The TELECASTER is what you achieve after many years of wandering around, when you realize that its simplicity is an infinite source of possibilities and a musical treasure you couldn't see before. It was right there, in front of you, in the plain light of the sun!
Now... let's give 'em a voice, right? PLEASE wear that nice set of headphones your wife gave you as last Xmas present!
The GREEN screams classic rock here:
The KORINA girl dances on tropical sands here:
The RED lady softly sings here:
That birdseye!!!
Beauties all! I have one like your “unplanned” child, it is the 3xLollartron Tele in my post earlier in the thread. Took inventory one day and figured out I had a whole guitar’s worth of stuff laying aboutThe GREEN one was an unplanned child!

I just got around to giving your linked tunes a listen, holy cow man! Smokin’! I cannot believe the tone in the New Year video comes from a Tele sporting single coils. That was hands down my favorite. Exceptional work on all countsSOOOOO... Telecaster be!
