My Tele Project

[DocNrock]

This would be my version......... :headbang1:

That looks like a supercharged Tele, as well.  I'm just wondering what an ebony freboard would look like, though. :icon_thumright:

Ebony would be too much black, need a lighter color fretboard in between the pickguard and the headstock to break it up a bit... :guitarplayer2:

...or do you?  :glasses9:

Actually with the Pau Ferro top that's on it a pau ferro board might look pretty good...... :dontknow:

That doesn't look bad at all
I have often thought about a fr Deluxe, but the last time I checked, the Deluxe is the only body shape they won't or can't route for any type of tremolo. (I wonder why that is)

Still, it looks great!

Was just looking over the Delux options and ther is no mention of them not being able to route for a floyd?  It does say it comes standard with the 6 hole flat mount bridge style, but I see no reason a floyd couldn't be cut instead...May have to modify the pickguard a bit.... :dontknow:

I don't know why it should be a problem either, but check all the red lines on this page:

Perhaps an ebony fretboard with sharkfins.  Maybe a veneer on the headstock to match the body?

I just realized...we seriously hijacked this thread, too...back to your regularly scheduled programming...

Hmmmmm, ok.... Greeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeegg, why is a floyd or any other trem say not available on the Delux.... It's just a tele body as any other...This makes no sense...
