Sorry but white binding on a red body is chaff. Not even Dean guitars dare do that.

pfffft.


I mean, come on. Lordy I want a bound tele, ideally sunburst but red is the secret "will never buy but WANT".

I had a sunburst bound Tele made by Fenix. They are collectable now and i gave the damn thing away.

i quite like the red with white binding, i must say. seems to soften the edges a bit.

'62-style binding looks cool, but I found (in the tele I've recently sold) that it dug in my ribs and was generally uncomfortable. I'm kinda going for 'less is more' with this one.

Spokeshave = Rib contour.
If its an unfinished body then why not? I put contours on that JS i built.

Well I reckon a standard edge radius will be fine, comfort wise. Plus thinline with a contour is a bit tricky. Warmoth do this, but when I asked said it was a one-off.

Oh right they only do it on their 'hollow' tele bodies, which are different from 'thinline' ones... obviously!

red. thinline plus the contour is cool but i always found flame tops on fenders look out of place... that and £/$ means it's f-in expense..

is that going to be a firebird pickup in the neck btw?

Lol I didn't notice the flamed maple. Yeah I don't dig that stuff either. Yep it's a firebird or les paul deluxe pickup... not decided which one yet though, but I do have a crappy Artec minibucker as a placeholder for now.

fiesta red is hard to capture in photos or images. in real life, im always like "oooooh" when i see it. its nice. do it.

like on jaguars, i was picking mine out and red looked soo good on it but i picked sunburst instead
Red is good depending on what style your playing sunburst works for just about everything.

for me i dont know about everyone else's opinions but depending on what style of music im playing some guitar colors just dont "work" like red on a jaguar for me dosent work for me all the time

I only like black guitars.

Sort your point out. You say style of music but then that red on a jaguar doesn't work. Do you mean style of guitar or style of music?
