Members Wyatt Posted May 10, 2012 Members Share Posted May 10, 2012 Well, for "cheaper", you want to stay finished. Just having to tape and scrap the binding is a bitch and needs to be done by someone who knows what they are doing, typically it's a $75 upcharge per binding (so $150 extra plus finishing costs for a double-bound Tele body). Keep an eye out for a used import body or even guitar you can get cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Angry Tele Posted May 10, 2012 Members Share Posted May 10, 2012 not black but a squier cvc sunburst bound body would be perfect. Its not import spec so it fits US Fender parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Edge11 Posted May 15, 2012 Author Members Share Posted May 15, 2012 I was thinking maybe the john 5 tele with another neck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never buy directly from Allparts, a generous Allparts dealer will discount 25%-40% off of what Allparts charges direct. Since you can't find what you want at the price you want, you may have to settle or pay more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
