Members GilmourD Posted February 10, 2010 Members Share Posted February 10, 2010 I've seen some Tony Rincon work previously and that POS is certainly not a prime example of his work or more than likely not even one of his pieces. I call shens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bluesway Posted February 10, 2010 Members Share Posted February 10, 2010 i don't hate it....i'd like to see one after a few more tries...maybe he'd refine a few things.....that jack plate is just retarded, though...THAT needs fixin. i think the biggest problem with this guitar is that he wrote "telecaster" in the listing....i'd try and play it......

Members notjonahbutnoah Posted February 10, 2010 Members Share Posted February 10, 2010 Or a special school.You know dude, I work with people with developmental disabilities. Its comments like that that make whole heartedly agree. This guy needs to convert his stuff into rodent cage liner.I will say though, the clients at my work could prolly do better.

Members evh1984 Posted February 10, 2010 Members Share Posted February 10, 2010 I just wonder why sometimes. that being said, the video in the post at least showed that the guitar was playable that's it's one redeeming factor, I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Edward Posted February 10, 2010 Members Share Posted February 10, 2010 Both pups are off a bit. That's easy enough to correct by making new pup rings. Functionally, I don't imagine that would matter so much, but I can see why it would bother folks cosmetically. Otherwise..... well..... it isn't exactly to my tastes looks-wise, but no less so than most guitars with fancy figured woods. Just not my bag.

Members Elias Graves Posted February 10, 2010 Members Share Posted February 10, 2010 I'm thinking so. I own property less than ten miles from his shop. I've driven by it a thousand times. I figured they just made furniture. EG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr.Grumpy Posted February 10, 2010 Members Share Posted February 10, 2010 Identity theft? Counterfeits? The plot thickens.EG I think they should pull his auction, that is in no way shape or form a "Telecaster." It's one thing to sell a "telecaster style" guitar, but calling it Telecaster is.....wrong.

Members alex9152 Posted February 10, 2010 Members Share Posted February 10, 2010 Is it me, or does the A string look a different colour? Yep. The A is probably an acoustic string and the D appears to be a bullet-end string. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members volvo1800 Posted February 10, 2010 Members Share Posted February 10, 2010 Man, you guys are being pretty hard on this guy. It kind of seems unfair, If you don't like it you don't have to buy it. I mean its not like hes trying to get you to pay thousands of dollars for a piece of poop on a stick.
