The Shark Posted October 3, 2025 Posted October 3, 2025 (edited) Valeriy Vaschenko LV Model "Tele-Paul" with a one piece beautiful Honduras Mahogany body and neck finished in a beautiful "TV" see through finish. The back and neck are "Gibby" cherry. Neck has a slight "V to C" shape and has a scarf joint for stability along with a long tenon. Rosewood board is Indian. All hide glue assembly. Inlays are ivory. Bone nut. Jescar stainless steel frets (plays great with .010 to .046). Finish is nitro lacquer. Schaller tuners, Graphtech bridge, 1" long DMC Vintage '59 bushings, and a switchkraft jack. Cloth wiring and braided shielding. CTS pots with Soviet .022u and .047u caps. Pickups are 8Bomb HB-1 Paf's (A2 and A4). Weight is just shy of 8lbs. Comes with a gig-bag. Guitar is slightly reliced. Everything about this build is pro. Rings loudly acoustically and looks killer. NEW PRICE is $2,400 shipped in the lower 48. This is a steal. This build is almost 5K now. Let me know, if you have any questions. Edited September 27 by The Shark 8 Quote

currypowder Posted Tuesday at 03:12 PM Posted Tuesday at 03:12 PM I currently own 2 Vaschenkos (and have owned several others). They are meticulously hand crafted instruments that punch way above their weight. Plus, @The Shark is super easy to deal with. 3 Quote
