OK, I lied about the timing, but I did cut the nut and string her up this afternoon. As Wayne Campbell would say..Shwing!   |

I think that is the most "natural" looking 3-pickup tele I have ever seen. They almost always look a little awkward to me--like a person with three eyes--but this one looks natural as can be. Is it perhaps how you used the strat-style setup with three pups in the guard, and the shape of the guard flows with the shape of the guitar. Very sweet looking!

funny how it works. When I commented on #126, I never thought I would buy it. But I bought it today. Once I picked it up, I knew it had to be mine. Shwing indeed! This one is re-shaping my ideas about what guitar I want. I always loved the tele shape the most, but kept going back to strats for their versatility. This guitar combines both PERFECTLY. I feel like I am playing a tele, but with the added options. Wow, this Gotoh bridge and trem system is really high quality. This guitar is one that came down from the gods. Thanks Rich and Chris (hopefully I will keep this one and stop my wandering ways. Stay tuned!)
