Lacquered Tweed Telecaster (Fender/ Seymour Duncan)

*THE ACTUAL GUITAR PICURED ABOVE IS SOLD ALREADY, BUT MADE TO ORDER IS ALWAYS POSSIBLE, AVAILABLE IN 2 MONTHS AFTER YOU ORDERED IT!*

Selling this one-off build, 50ies tweed amp style telecaster.

The body of this Telecaster is covered in genuine Fender tweed cloth, finished in Shellac Lacquer. To add some detail, it is having chickenhead knobs and a amp style switch.

Specs;

2 piece center seam American Alder body. A very nice one, maybe a little too nice, as it could also have been used for a nice burst or see though finish. Anyway, its covered if genuine Fender tweed cloth, finished in Shellac Lacquer. A very tight job if i may say, thanks to vacuum technique. Copper shielded.

A genuine Fender 50ies maple replacement neck
(comfortable vintage "C" profile and 7.25"-radius maple fingerboard with 21 vintage-style frets, nice flatsawn maple)

Seymour Duncan Antiquity '55 set Made in USA. Insanely good sounding pickups.

CTS 250k Pots+ orange drop cap.

Vintage style Kluson Deluxe tuners nickel

Fender bridge Nickel with compensated saddles

All the hardware, (tuners, string tree, neck plate + neck screws, strap buttons, bridge, string ferrules, control plate, output jack) are matching nickel plated, to make it look a little older without relicing it.

As cherry on top, it does come in a genuine Fender tweed case.

It is setup, intonated, new Elixer Nanoweb 010 strings installed: Ready to go! It plays easy, and the sound is killer. The neck is fat and clean, the bridge has this twang sound that only high end telecasters can have. A true sound beast. Those Seymour Duncans are really worth it.

This guitar is build with a lot of care, love and time was being taken. Its build with very good parts, and it shows. its not only pleasing to the eye, but the sound a playability are top notch. Also, its still resonant, due to the Titebond that is used to glue the tweed on the body that gets pretty hard, and the shellac too, that is the ultimate material for resonance, as used back in the days to make good sounding instruments.

Reverb does not let me post a lot of pics, so the whole build is on my facebook page; Tony's Branch Guitars.
