Finally finished my spalted maple Tele. (First build, woohoo!) A modern take on the the venerable Telecaster....
Looks like flames and smoke are spewing out the "back" of both pickups, love it! And that full-on 3D flame, a hint of it on the headstock, and then check out the view I have when I play. (last photo :guitarplayer2
I think it rivals any Fender Custom Shop build, if not exceeds them.
Stats
Body: Telecaster, spalted maple on mahogany, brown to clear burst, transparent brown on back
Neck: Flamed maple neck on Indian Rosewood fretboard, MOP inlay dots
Pickups
Neck: Dimarzio Area T stacked (noiseless)
Bridge: Joe Barden Engineering (JBE) Modern T Bridge staggered blade
Bridge:Babicz Full Contact
