My Warmoth build #2 has arrived

[mrpinter]

A standard Tele, olympic white, with a wenge on goncalo alves neck (compound radius, SS 6115 frets). It's getting SD Vintage and Broadcaster pups. I'm having it built by a professional, and will deliver all this to him in a few days. Here are the obligatory teaser shots:

That's gonna look and feel great! Good choices!

Oh Wenge, how I miss thee. I want your tele.  :headbang1: Why not a mint green pickguard?  :icon_scratch:

 

[mrpinter]

Mint green pickguard? Hmmm. Here's what it would look like:

I think with the orangish color of the goncalo alves neck the black and white will be a great combo. Like this:

:icon_thumright:  Lovely

Great combo on the neck  :toothy10:

Go the Black  ...... much better looking  :icon_biggrin:
TIP ....
I would delete that 1st pic ... for security reasons ..... ie: your details on box.
When I take a pic of neck box & body box, I put the neck box across my details  :icon_thumright:

 

[mrpinter]

I appreciate the warning re my details on the shipping address label. But when I downsized that image for web use I made sure that the info is pixellated enough at that resolution as to be illegible when enlarged. It looks like the detail is there, but it isn't.

 

[Updown]

No worries ... I just get shivers when I see that type of thing  :icon_biggrin:

Plus always have in the back of my mind, that .....
You never know what powers are out there that can get though that, you know enlarge, decipher etc.
There are plenty of scammers etc these days.

Anyway that Tele should Rock  :headbang:

That mint green isn't really what it would look like. I have a Fender mint green pickguard on a Sonic Blue tele and it looks like parchment with a very slight green tinge. It's very classy and looks good on white.

That image above looks horrible though... and I still think I prefer the black, which looks great.

The answer is none... none more black.
