Tfreak Posted April 7, 2005 Report Share Posted April 7, 2005 Hi, I'm Dave, I go by the name Telefreak on most places but that names already gone. Anyway, Duffbeerman said to come over and show off the Telecasters I've built. Hope you like them My latest project, love the P90 The first guitar I built for my little brother, a bit battle scarred now The second guitar I built for my brother, 1 day parts special put together the day before his bands first gig. My old Telecaster, got bored and sold it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jay5 Posted April 7, 2005 Report Share Posted April 7, 2005 Cool, I love teles. There are several others here who feel the same. Are these all parts built or did you build any of the stuff yourself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tfreak Posted April 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2005 Thanks, they're my favourite guitar. I decided to come check this place out because the forums that I'm a moderator on are dead now. Hehe, everyone has jumped ship and come here. If you can't beat them, join them For the light blue one, I made the body myself, but I bought the neck, my tool collection/confidence isn't up to that yet. The 2 I built for my brother are partscasters andthe natural one at the bottom was a modded Japanese Fender Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RGGR Posted April 7, 2005 Report Share Posted April 7, 2005 (edited) Although beat-up like sh*t.....I really dig that dark-blue one. (Would put tele neck on it though.....but that body....) How much does he want for it???? Would love to see pic of back of it. See, this is relic-ing done the right way. Dropping down stairs......hanging behind cars......drop from airplane......all that kinds sh*t. Edited April 7, 2005 by RGGR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Would put tele neck on it though.....but that body....) ← Have to try the dropping down the stairs thing with the Bocaster...how many flights of stairs? Cement? Tile? Carpeting? Oh yeah, I agree, that strat head doesn't look right. Why not carve it to tele style? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah, I agree, that strat head doesn't look right. Why not carve it to tele style? ← So many questions. Duff, which other one? The Strat neck is on there because it was the only thing he liked about his old Strat and he wanted it put on the Tele body I sold him along with a bunch of other mods, what he wants he gets. Part of the relicing was done with a plane because when I did the forearm contour, I did it in the wrong place for the way he plays, the rest is from him not using a case and dropping it down about 40 carpeted stairs on to his housemates mountain bike. The back of it looks pretty similar to the front but with the addition of major buckle rash. I don't think he'd ever sell it, he loves it more than anything else he's ever owned.
