Members Norcal_GIT_r Posted February 23, 2010 Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 Here's the latest tele I've put together. This one I had the help from a couple of forum members. ten56gibby, who I got the neck and other various parts from and JJPistols who made me a custom leather pickguard. Thanks guys. So here's the specs: GFS Paulownia Body with flamed maple veneer top. Custom JJ Pistols Handmade Leather Pickguard 1992 Fender MIM flamed maple neck BG Pups A3 Rockwind set Mojo Vintage bridge and cover These light weight bodies feel and sound so nice. This is the 2nd one I've put together. If you've been thinking of grabbing one of these bodies I'd say go for it. Here's the photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Meowy Posted February 23, 2010 Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 I'm gonna guess the leather pickguard, bridge cover and extra pup winds help counter neck dive from an ultralight body. Nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DenverDave Posted February 23, 2010 Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 Sweet looking Tele! And JJ did a great job on the pickguard! And I'm amazed to see that kind of figure on a MIM neck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SnoMan97 Posted February 23, 2010 Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 Looks great Bryan. Those GFS bodies have been a pretty good batch from what I am hearing. May have to pick one up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 211dave112 Posted February 23, 2010 Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 i like it, though i think it'd look better with a plastic pickguard. something odd about the pickguard, i do like the design on the PG though, is it sitting flush with body all the way round? how you finding the mim neck, those tele mim necks are one of my fave necks i've played, especially once worn in a little bit.
