Members jjpistols Posted May 28, 2006 Members Share Posted May 28, 2006 afaik, allparts is the exclusive parts seller - I think they are a 25" scale neck, while a tele is 25.5", so that could be a problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know - he also looked at naked children, so, well, ya know? (j/k, I'm a Who fan) You'd probably have to reposition the bridge to get it to intonate with the shorter scale, which more than likely means new pup routs and drilling new string holes thru the body maybe some of the more recent models like the Innuendo and Hearsay had a longer scale, I don't know - they were more fendery in design, though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members jjpistols Posted May 28, 2006 Members Share Posted May 28, 2006 was it actually a legitimate playable instrument, or something cobbled together only to smash on stage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members hondro Posted May 28, 2006 Members Share Posted May 28, 2006 Originally posted by jjpistols was it actually a legitimate playable instrument, or something cobbled together only to smash on stage? I'm guessing he broke the original neck and just scrapped this together I cant imagine him just building this if it couldnt be played at all (like you said in your previous post) so maybe it had a 25.5 in scale?

Frets99 Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 I thought you could enly get one from a cheap dano.....I actually like danos... The U2 is an awesome slide machine.That pic of Townshend is way cool. Tele's with Dano necks.. kind of look like children... ok... ok... I'll stop now... Pete dammit... just say it isn't so...One of the best solos of all time. "Pictures of Lilly"..... great tune too!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can imagine it - they had to get something together for him to smash every single night there for awhile - it was their trademark - it didn't have to be intonatable if he was only gonna use it for one song, and more than likely playing cowboy chords for it, anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only bought from subway once, and that was in person. He IS a bit eccentric, and maybe the last genuine hippy, but a very affable dude.

A visit to Subway should be a must for any guitarist, especially those with an affinity for weird/vintage/kooky stuff. Fat Dawg is character, but an all around nice guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
