you know the floyd tele, all white with black hardware. frank black played one.
was it doug?

this is a tele elite.




and nobody fucking has one.

sounds like what you are talking about is a contemporary tele. somebody is working on making one with p rails.

hu?
you mean this one?


i've been meaning to pull the pup covers off for robroe
and take some shots its sitting at a friends jam space right now
i'm sure i can grab it back when i return form montreal next week


alos.. best image of it ever.. but i think i still played my mustang that night.

SO METAL IT HURTS

i stand corrected i didnt know you had one, serfx. those are rare as shit. how does it sound?

but he's not talking about an elite tele, hes talking about a contempotele:

it sounds like a les paul
but with some twang to it.
fender active pick ups

--
i might have some audio i've recorded with it somewhere
but its mostly just been my sit on the couch guitar..

--
and yes i think thats the guitar that rob(og) is looking for
one of those i do not have.

I have these pictures saved in my huge guitar folder. It looks like a Penguin going to a ball.

i love this guitar so much.

they had a gold top one at HOG. it still had the pickguard on it. i think the pickguard was white...or it could have been gold too.


anyways. i would stare at it for hours trying to figure out how the pickguard stayed on the guitar w/o screws. what kind of fucking guitar company would glue a pickguard on a guitar?

also i love the pickup covers.


if i ever bought a jaguar i would search the ends of the earth for these covers to put on it.

also.

WHITE TOGGLEYS are fucking impossible to buy anymore.

every thing is fucking creme. finding a white one is damn near fucking impossible. the only way you can get them is to unscrew them off of gibson robot guitars

true! 90s duo-sonics have them though

Doog has/had a contempory tele.

The black tele elite is fantastic looking. I'd buy one in a heartbeat if I ever saw one for sale at a reasonable price.

yeah! i was talking about the contemorary tele or whatever but i had forgotton about the tele elite, the black one is amazing looking, i would love to play one and get the feel for it.
serfx POST THAT SHIT!

Doog had a contemporary tele as well as that Squier carvetop HH tele thing that p-rail dude [sorry for the impromptu name, p-rail dude] is modifying when he was in his Pixies tribute.

I really like that

time to dig up the dead. as it took a fucking year but i got my Tele Elite back
and robroe had asked me to take some shots of the pickups with the covers off
turns out, the covers don't come off that is the fucking pickup!

so yeah..
under the covers the body looks white. so this cream may have started out white, and sat in a smoking room for about 17 years before i got it.

my god that thing is hot.

what a crazy ass lookin pickup.

P-rails tele or bust!
I would say it's wrong to take a switch tip off of a guitar in a shop by I took a jewel light bulb a few weeks back from guitar center because they were massive fucking pricks and it was off a used amp that was torn literally to shreads

Elite Tele would agree: Anarchy FTW
