The Corvette - way too many pics!

[Fat Pete]

Got tired of waiting for good light to coincide with opportunity and took a bunch of pictures anyway. Some are even in focus. Apologies for the 'art'...

 

[Raunline]

WOW! That looks GREAT! I remember prepping that body before it shipped and really liked the natural masked binding! I'm not a Tele guy but this did give me a mind full of ideas! Congrats!

 

[Fat Pete]

Thanks to you and all at Warmoth for the superb quality and service. Busy 'making arrangements' for the next one.

Pardon me while I meme out:

Quiet the looker you got there!  :icon_thumright:

So - where are "the too many pics"?  :icon_jokercolor:

That is awesome!! I'm not too hip on the "Wood and Paint By" part but overall, total thumbs up on this one.

That amp is sooooooooooo sexilicious.

I think the opposite.  The small touch like that is great.

I very rarely say this, so know that it's significant: Nice looking tele!

I love the tiny Warmoth logo though. Hey, if we all liked the same thing this world would really be boring. Still a great looking guitar. I wouldn't kick it out of bed for eating crackers.

Totally missed the Warmoth logo the first 20 times I looked through these pics. Great job by the way the guitar looks spectacular.    :rock-on:

Thanks all! I'm really happy with how it's turned out.

That amp is sooooooooooo sexilicious.

Thanks for that too - though it's just a speaker cab. If I ever get round to finishing the amp head, you'll probably like that as well.

That is one gorgeous instrument! Normally, I don't care for Tele headstocks, but that one would have been wrong without it. Just a beautiful piece!

Sweet! Got any current pics of the head?

Thanks! Strangely enough I've been thinking about putting a Strat neck on its upcoming sibling.

It's still just a chassis pulled out of a combo at the moment...

 

[Cagey]

Strat heads don't look bad. Warheads look better, to my taste.

 

[Jumble Jumble]

I think right from the Just Out of the Box thread, we all knew this was going to be a bit special, but that doesn't lessen the impact one bit now it's done. It is flat-out stunning. You must be delighted. Superb work.

Beautiful guitar! What kind of pickups?

The attention to detail is impressive.

Thanks!

The pickups are from Catswhisker Pickups, a one-man UK maker. There's info about these ones - T-Bucker bridge and F-Bird neck - on his site. Highly recommended.

Hey Fat Pete I knew if I hunted a bit I would find it. After seeing your comment in the GOTM I had to see some better pics of your beautiful Tele. Nice work! She is amazing. One day I am gonna have to build me up one. May the juggernaut role on :laughing3:
