It better be magic for that kinda money, like with an accurate WRH for a change.

If an aftermarket vendor does black block on tele necks, I get a sense that this is going to be a template for DIY rather than a big seller in its own right. Think Cabronita.

And phantasmagorovich, I expect you to come here and wipe the splooge off my computer screen.


Tele shaped, sorry.

Give that guitar a 3-tone sunburst, faded white double binding on the body and a bound rosewood fretboard with block pearl inlays and I'd be all over it. As is, it looks kind of "meh" to me.

Or an unbound vintage white body with a tortoise shell pickguard with said bound rosewood fretboard. Pure sex.

I think there is twelve different models. Of course they are ALL way beyond reasonably priced. But I kinda like looking at them. I guess I would take one that's made fron an unusual material if it came to choosing, like the first one in this post, that's made from Redwood or the last one that's made from bamboo. There's a contoured Mahogani one that sorta looks like a bastard child from a Wilshire and a Tele. Wait - I'll get a pic.

(Oh, BTW, the only CuNiFe magnet repros I kind find out are $450 a pop from Telenator. Looks ridiculous until you decide to try to beat Fender's price point.)
