If there ever was a $149.00 RAWK template, that's it. Mega plus-points for matte Slaone finish and blackout hardware, of course.

I'm not regretting getting the Yamaha SG1000, but had this thing come out sooner, I'd have grabbed it and tinkered it into a beast for the summer tour.

cheap and ALL BLACKED THE FUCK OUT!

I have a feeling the neck will feel totally SHIT, but hell switch it out with something killer, or like a fucking baritone neck fuck yes.

I know it's not the same but the HH bullet telecasters makes me wanna get one and slam some TV Jones in it and rock a poor man's La Cabronita.
Add some homebrew red and white pin striping like a boss.

The pickups would cost more than the guitar, though.

bummer.

it's not strings-thru.

Probably shouldn't be a deal breaker, but I don't like top loaders...

Liking the looks of this thing more and more.

Flat-black paint over nickel hum covers would be the only sexier thing, if one didn't motherbuck the bridge up a la Bellamiez.

Shame they're obviously left-over Tele bodies so had to keep the controlplate route, rather than sticking a rear cavity in LP-style.

I might've picked one up to refinish in white and get my Black Francis on again..

I just got a price match on one of these from Music123 for $122.99.

They're $129.99 @ musicians friend right now, still $199.99 at Music123.

Online price match makes this almost too good to say no to.
