I love the wood and grain on that first thinline. How heavy is it?

It's not heavy at all, not featherweight though.


Birdseye maple... AAAA. The body is mahogany with african (quilty/wild) walnut top.
Pickup is 57 Classic and 52Ri Fender Tele lead

Schaller tuners. Fender bridge. Fender control plate and knobs. CTS pots.
Orange Drop cap. Fender CRL switch. Gibson LP jack plate. Tusq nut.

I do love teles. Best guitar ever made, IMHO.

The first two are sex. The rest - ehhh

Always very interesting, carefully done. I am not into trans black, but his choices for the guard and HW are part of what sets them apart. Great burst.

What manufacturer is CB?
I'm dreaming of a goltop double bound single p-90 in the bridge esquire thinline with only a tone control and a Gibson style bridge with string through ferrules.
Or a Les Paul of the same description.
I'd be willing to go with a humbucker route and p-94 if it were less expensive and easier.
Warmoth is quite expensive.

=CB= is just a very good friend of mine that does amp/guitar/gunsmithing/harley projects now and then.
