I had a boss that said he saw a bitch GIVE CHANGE from a roll of quarters once….

Bump for serious Tele goodness!

I bought it from a former HFC member who may or may not have bought it from you. I believe so. I am stoked to get it. After bond8ng with my Tally, I need more V-necks in my life. Edited to reflect Gotoh, not Ibanez bridge.

@jginsj, I agree on the Gravelin Tele neck pickups. No mud at all. And I think they sound better than Strat neck pickups. I can on,y say that about Gravelin and Rumpelstiltskin Tele neck pickups. somebody buy this!

Since it was MIJ production Fender in Japan, I would doubt it. I do know it is beautiful😎

That is the one, @currypowder!

Really nice Tele here,peeps!

Thanks for t(e photo assist, @Travis!

We have here a killer relic USA MJT Tele body in ice green metallic ofr alder which looks GREAT under stage lights (according to my long-suffering wife) and an 80s vintage MIJ maple neck with a 7.25 radius, which I have grown to love. The pickguard and hardware have all been reliced, except for the just installed Jack plate. The fretboard is beautifully streaked rosewood. Some wear on the frets but not an issue. I can fly on this Tele. Why am I selling? I was so enamored with the MIJ neck I traded for a Crews Maniac MIJ 54 Tele clone. I am weird and don’t need two Teles. Does not come with pickups tho I do have a KILLER Gravelin neck pickup I’d include for 100 bucks if anyone is interested. Bridge and saddles are Gotoh In-Tune compensated. Perfect grab and go Tele here. The switch is a 3 way. Vol pot is a no friction EVH that is a joy. It also has a nice treble bleed network soldered in. Comes with a Gator gig bag. I bought this from @bubs_42 and he can attest to the coolness of the body checking and hardware. I am thinking exactly what I have into it. Sold including the Gravelin neck pickup and I throw in the brand new gig bag gratis. pics coming

@ZR, using the Sunset live room or the plate verb as a send that is then hard panned gives you that early VH sound where EVH is hard panned on one side, but the reverb slathered guitar is hard panned opposite and up just enough to be heard. A classic 70s studio trick (as you prolly already know) to get ambience on a track.

Hey, that extra half inch can make all the difference…

The Sunset Sound YouTube vids make it clear how important he was to the VH sound, and others as well.

I loved them in the 70s. Such good guitarists. Ed King was a monster and a better slide player than Gary, IMO. But all 4 were great in their own way. When I lived in south Florida in the 70s, some local rock station played Freebird at midnight every Friday or Saturday, I forget which. Every car would tune in and blast it all together. Those were the days. We didn’t hate Freebird then, it was considered a guitar master class. Gary on slide and Allen’s one take solo…and add in Gaines on the Live album. Thanks for the nostalgia tour, @Saul Goodman.

..and I dig @RobB’s minimalist pedal board. Just rock.

Our own @bubs_42 recommends this pedal highly. Sounds like it kicks serious booty.

I am not a Rush fan. But the first album is by far my fave and it just rocks. 1st album, side 1, cut 1…hell yes! Miles played it fantastically and I saw her with Jeff Beck as well. She will tear the roof off the sucker on this tour. I wish they were coming to KC. They look like they are enjoying just rocking out and that is contagious.

Generic Hustle was badass!

@beezerboy, let us know how it turns out and sounds, please!

Good eye, Ernie. Something appears amiss here.

Something just doesn’t look right with this guitar…but maybe they did a special run (like described above) before they started making the “normal” wraptail Special Junior Korinas.

I still wanna put one on 0006…Grace & Enola…

II will say this: at least they are apparently real people playing real instruments making real music that some people like. Beats AI.

I love when @Bennyboy-UK posts. He makes me laugh like I’m 15 again….though, tbh, like most guys, I haven’t matured beyond 15…and I am 63 (15).

Me too, @hamerican gigolo

YAY! Glad it sold @currypowder!
