Timber Rattler Telecaster by Tom Maier

[sculptor54]

Here are more pics of the Timber Rattler Telecaster that I routed, carved and sanded out of a slab of red oak wood. The neck is a showcase Warmoth birdseye maple. I installed Lollar Gold Foil pups and Fender Locking Tuners. I think the yellow maple neck pairs well with the yellow phase Timber Rattler.

Well, SH*T! That's only the coolest piece of work I've ever seen! The accuracy is mind-bending! Absolutely beautiful!!

Very impressive.

Wow! I know I'm impressed! Fantastic piece of work!

That's really outstanding work! It's very cool the way the rattler goes in one knothole and out another.

Looks like you might need to step your game a bit Greg... :dontknow:

Dont be silly. Different art forms. Maybe combine them. Burn features into the sculpture, rather than paint them.

I know, I was just pushing his buttons... :evil4:

Good grief, what a work of art and an honor it would be to play that or any of the works of art by Great Ape as well! We are truly fortunate to get glimpses of this level of work here on this forum.  :hello2:

Thanks for the compliment. I am always wanting to sculpt and create. I have "been around the block" a time or two owning various brands of guitars but I ALWAYS come back to my Fender Telecaster. I have a Butterscotch Blond Elite with maple neck that I love. It is my "gold standard" when I create a new guitar design of my own. I have new designs that I am working on and will post to this site when complete. Thanks again
