...on the custom six string Teuffel Tesla after selling off 6 regular guitars within the last few month to come up with the cash.
Just finished a long call with Ulrich Teuffel to talk about the specs and things in gerneral!
All my guitar GAS faded more and more after purchasing a 7 string tesla last year cause i finally found MY guitar...
Couldnt be happier right now!

Specs:
Colour: Chorcoal (Gun Metal Gray)
Ebony Fretboard
Stainless Steel Frets
Scale 25.6
22 Frets to get a thick mid stomach on the neck humbucker for my nintendo style tappings
Neck Humbucker: something between P90 and PAF
Bridge Humbucker: very hot wired PAF style
Volume Knob re-placement to have easier access
No Noise switch
Push Push Volume knob to single Coil/Humbucker splitting

Big congrats...I have trouble enough deciding to part with 1 guitar, let alone 6.

I'm curious about the pickups and the neck profile...you must already like them if you're ordering another tesla :thumb:

Dude, that is going to be a massive guitar. How long before we get to see it?

I had 25 or 26 Guitars earlier this year and i just dont need 15 "different" Metal axes, just keeping the cream of the crop and the rest has to go!
My red tesla has a single coil in the neck and i will get the mentioned Pickup thats between P90 and PAF to play cleans and also my wirdo tappings (thats also why i dont want more than 22 frets, more mid stomach and flipper/nintendo feeling)
Neckprofile is perfect, a bit thicker than a regular RG ibanez and a bit thinner than most ESP M style necks...

Makes sense, I guess having 26 guitars is different from having the 6 I own :lol:

That's exciting news, Dennis, congrats! So this one will be the exact same body style as your red one, right? He makes some really wild guitars, really unique and unusual... can't wait to see it!
