Members rufus21 Posted November 25, 2007 Author Members Share Posted November 25, 2007 And me. Got that proper early 50s look now, as all blond mapleboard Teles should. and that's the look I was going for. I like white pickguards on colors, but it just looked wrong on the natural ash finish. next mod is a set of compensated brass saddles from these guys. http://www.projectconsultants.com/GTsadllesPages/gt623series.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members handen Posted November 25, 2007 Members Share Posted November 25, 2007 I've got a Bakelite Esquire pickguard coming my way, along with a few NOS 1950's paper caps to convert it entirely. Should be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
