Very cool. Lots of variety there. Thanks for uploading. +1 about the painting, carved tops are a bitch.

I really love that Tele. If you ever want to get rid of it for any reason, let me know.

More tones than you can shake a headstock at! Interesting to hear how tame the rails are compared to the P90s.

Good work on that finish by the way, and good jorrrrrb on a very straightforward presentation.

Wow, fantastic array of sounds there. You did good, grasshopper.

i feel a distinct shifting in my underwear for that tele, which is highly irregular.

robroe · Post by **robroe** » Thu Apr 30, 2009 12:13 pm

all those options and i know its horrible to say but i like the sound of the p90 alone by it self in the bridge.

its really hard for me to say that too because i love putting weird switching options in my guitars

jamc_89 - i'm digging it too, i don't think i'll be putting a decal on it any time soon

shad - will do, but i doubt it will happen! i love this thing, neck is soooo nice

ultra - yes, it does get crunchy to sweet and mellow, the bridge bucker option is something like 18k

Mike - coupletones!

stewart - i've had tele bonarz for the last four days, need to call that viagra line thing

robroe - the bridge p90 is great, it will get plenty of use i feel

PHEW

Bloody great job - looks amazing and sounds like a really versatile guitar.

One of my favourite teles I have seen. Very nicely done.

I'm not a big tele fan but this one is turning me on.

Haze · Post by **Haze** » Sat May 02, 2009 3:22 pm

cool to see the "not a tele" guys say they like it

A string tree popped off today during a jam session, that totally sucks as it sent it way out of tune and was a pain to keep in tune without a string tree. It's staying in tune now after it's had a chance to stretch a bit. I guess i'll be ordering roller saddles, and possibly some wilkinson locking tuners, the kind where you just have to tighten then to tension and lock them, so they only wind up about a 4th of the one rotation so it doesn't "stretch."
BUT other than that she is holding up amazingly well other than the string tree misshap. The finish on her isn't too great. I imagine i will have it re-done in a few years if need be. Or i might just let her age for all eternity!
The sounds still amaze me. The middle position with the Rails only is such a great clean tone, as the full buckers are much too harsh for a "clean" sound without dropping the volume back. The P90s are great for punk stuff too.
I will do a trebble bleed mod on it too, as i already have leftover caps and resistors from a previous mod.
Just an update and some insight after i've had her in my hands for a couple of weeks. Everyone that has seen it has been blown away. One "professional musician," as he called himself, couldn't believe that it is a korean squire! He also said he would HAVE to get a set of P-Rails for himself. So that was a pretty cool comment.
