I'm no fan of tele bridges. Though that thing looks incredible!

 

[Mor Paul]

Told you I wouldn't say anything  :icon_thumright:

Hmm... a neck HB tele? That seems fine. How about a Fralin tele bridge, and a dimarzio 36th anniversary PAF? :laughing7:

 

[bpmorton777]

stag mag in the neck, and some sort of slightly over-wound single coil tele pickup in the bridge. I love my stag mags!

[mayfly]

My only suggestion is - can you make one for me too? 
:headbang1: :headbang1: :headbang1:

 

[Mor Paul]

Oh, Glendale bridge. Angled saddles.

 

[tfarny]

Joe Barden makes a high quality and reasonable bridge as well with compensated brass saddles. I love my Lollar special T bridge pup, but I've never head a real, traditional tele neck pup that I liked much. The Bill Lawrence Keystone in my baritone tele is more like a 'hi-fi' strat neck sound than anything else.

 

[vansmack]

I LOVE that wood.  Stock piling some cash now for my next build.  It will definitely be a tele.  I really want a B-bender but I don't think I could tackle the job as Trevor has done on his paisley.  (jealous). :glasses9:

 

[Soylent]

I've asked young maxter to draft me up some pics for hardware ideas as well.

Not sure gold or chrome.. Always open to suggestion peoples!  :hello2:

 

[Juanito Burrito]

I just pulled these parts for you.  Everyone looked at that combo and agreed that this is going to be a first-class build.  Congratulations!  Don't forget to post pix when you get her put together!

 

[Soylent]

That just made my day.. Thank you warmoth you wonderful guitar part builders.  :headbang:

 

[Mor Paul]

Got lazy at some parts, but oh, well. I'd normally do better, but it's pretty hard to find black flat-top knobs, top-down.

 

[Soylent]

Dear geniuses,

Do they do chrome pup covers for tele bridge pups?

hmm..

 

[NonsenseTele]

:cool01:

 

[jay4321]

This is one of those really rare times I think black hardware actually works.

 

[Soylent]

You sir might be right, Max is phoboshopping some ideas up.. black does look nice...

 

[Mor Paul]

Black *looked* nice.
Then this came around.

I tried this time

 

[Soylent]

and that's what I like thus far.. that's hot.

 

[NonsenseTele]

Looking damn nice Luke!

 

[DocNrock]

If you like twanging, keep a tele style bridge pup, if you want to rock it, consider a DiMarzio Tone Zone T.  I have one in my Tele and it RAWKS!  :icon_thumright:
