Members Tweedledee Posted April 22, 2010 Author Members Share Posted April 22, 2010 Love it. What's it weigh? (or did I miss that?) I don't own a scale, but it's light. I would say 6.5 lbs or so. Just heavy enough to be balanced, just light enough to feel quite comfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Baddass Posted April 22, 2010 Members Share Posted April 22, 2010 The total cost for everything, including all the materials to do the finish, was just under $500. Kinda funny but just tuesday night I gave the other guitar player in my band a new Swettwater catalouge and I happened to point out these guitars to him and said what a shame look at the price Fender gets for these.I said to him I bet there are'nt 500 worth of parts in that. But you have a keeper there:eek:. Bet it sounds killer with a pine body. Enjoy:poke: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members roners5 Posted April 22, 2010 Members Share Posted April 22, 2010 damn bro, that looks really good- probably the most appealing cabronita copy that I've seen. I REALLY want to do one of these in seafoam and after seeing that I have some serious thinking to do. I was actually very very close to buying a real cabronita with the mf 15% off deals- I had it in my basket ready to go but they wouldn't give me the discount. Then when the next 15 % deal came along, the discount applied but I decided not to do it guess i got cold feet cause I couldn't test one in person and i wanted to make sure i'd be 100% happy with the sound.

Members sxyryan Posted April 23, 2010 Members Share Posted April 23, 2010 Man... you have mad skill with the finishing... that just looks awesome! Maybe this summer I can put together the cash to do a tele build... been aching to do one for quite a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members xStonr Posted April 23, 2010 Members Share Posted April 23, 2010 How do you like that Gretsch Filtertron. I got one last week and put it in my Telecaster. Nice tones. Your guitar looks great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your guitar looks great. I'm diggin' it! The aggressive twang is really "in your face" when it's dimed - even more than I thought it would be. You almost get that Nashville compressed tone without using a compressor, which is crazy to me. Then you roll back the volume a hair and it warms right up. If it's that good, then I wonder how a TV Jones one would sound in there. I'm not sure it could be "better". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
