Members cratz2 Posted April 14, 2011 Members Share Posted April 14, 2011 No pics, but my old Xaviere (from when they were made in Korea) had the belly cut, but it was bound and had a flamed top so no forearm cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members cBc Posted April 14, 2011 Members Share Posted April 14, 2011 oh man nice. My Yamaha 120SD "tele" could use one of these. It leans forward away from my melon a bit. Must investigate doing this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tvvoodoo Posted April 14, 2011 Members Share Posted April 14, 2011 My STL Ash undergoing Tru-Oil refin, with both cuts Mocked up. I did the "engraving" with a dremel. The brand, in cattleman lingo reads "Rockin' Sixty-nine" registered to my uncle duke. Yeah, that's his real name. It's together and wired with the 4 way now - (there's a P90 under the cowhide) I'm tweaking. Super comfy, twangs like crazy. There's an STL Ash near stock for sale right now on the AGF forum - No more new ones will be coming down the Rondo pipeline - the way I understand it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members clay sails Posted April 15, 2011 Members Share Posted April 15, 2011 I think the blackout series from Fender has a tummy cut. I love the tele sound but hate the edge of teles against my forearm -- the tummy cut takes the sharpness off the front by allowing the guitar to angle slightly. I'm sure this was obvious to most of you but I just discovered this elegant fix to my problem with teles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members billybilly Posted April 15, 2011 Members Share Posted April 15, 2011 Personally, I find it odd that Fender doesn't sell them like that stock. They would be so much more comfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr Songwriter Posted April 15, 2011 Members Share Posted April 15, 2011 Personally, I find it odd that Fender doesn't sell them like that stock. They would be so much more comfortable. I wondered about that too, I know they've tried it (some sort of Tele custom I think, not sure)...maybe it didn't sell well enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members nothingstock Posted April 15, 2011 Members Share Posted April 15, 2011 I have a Suire that I did a tummy cut and forearn cut, but my favorite mod is the contour on the back of the cutaway - -I think it makes a huge difference when you get up the neck. I just don't have a good pic of mine showing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
