Members HanSolo Posted February 9, 2010 Members Share Posted February 9, 2010 The pickup rings are an especiale' touch. Hand carved from selected cedar closet liner. I like how the pole piece on the bridge pickup completely misses the high E too. http://cgi.ebay.com/TELECASTER-CUSTOM-GUITAR-MAPLE-NECK-RED-CEDAR-TOP_W0QQitemZ260550059824QQcmdZViewItemQQptZGuitar?hash=item3ca9fe6730 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mazi Bee Posted February 9, 2010 Members Share Posted February 9, 2010 Looks like a tele got run over by a truck and smooshed like roadkill. Man, that control plate is waaaay to close to the strings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Belva Posted February 9, 2010 Members Share Posted February 9, 2010 Both pups are off a bit. That's easy enough to correct by making new pup rings. The location of the control pocket is not easy to correct and is IMO just wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members HanSolo Posted February 9, 2010 Author Members Share Posted February 9, 2010 I'm still laughing at the pickup rings and control plate. I can see the guy freehanding those with a scroll saw and holding them up going "Yeah baby, custom wood pickup rings." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Waygonner Posted February 9, 2010 Members Share Posted February 9, 2010 The builder must not be a guitar player. No way any player could or would tolerate the controls being that far up the body and that close to the strings. Maybe a picker, but I doubt it.
