    Heh. Famous last words.

    The other guy in my band had a green acrylic Mockingbird. That damn thing must have weighed like 50 pounds or something. It's gone now. Got traded in toward the Hamer Artist.

    Production Fender Teles (the ones I've examined anyway -- your mileage may vary) have the flat spot where the output jack goes. I've always thought it was a bit strange, but then Leo never really did anything without a good reason.

    Oh.

    The best thing to do is go into a music store that has a lot acoustics and try them all. When you find one that's comfortable and sounds good unplugged, then plug it in and try every acoustic amp they have. You are getting an acoustic amp too, right? By the way, I have this one: http://www.ibanez.com/guitars/guitar.asp?model=AEF30ETBK The 2005 model even comes with an onboard tuner.

    Have you seen this stuff? I bet it's probably thin enough for what you want. http://www.fretware.com/catalog2/default.php

    ALso, if you use a drill bit that's just a tad bigger than the posts it will give you some wiggle room.

    I'm wondering about the X-acto saw. Are the blades narrow and stiff enough for the job? Is it worth buying a set to try it out?

    I'm by no means an expert but I have made do with a used body or two. I'd check to see if the pickguard and original Tele bridge will cover the hogged out holes. If they will, great. If not, you can plug them and rerout. Then check the bridge mounting holes. If they're "wallered out" (Okie lingo), you can dowel them and redrill. That's pretty easy. The amount of wood missing probably won't make that much audible difference in the amplified tone. Unless you're Eric Johnson or Allan Holdsworth or something. Then all bets are off.

    1. D 2. A 3. B 4. What, like catalogs? I'm a sale hound. 5. A 6. Like…Lots of guitars / Dislike…Too crowded. Don't these people have homes or jobs or something? 7. The "shredders." Nothing personal, but I need what's left of my hearing. 8. Online. When I'm ready to buy I know what I want, and I don't want a display model.

    Rereading your post, you seem offended that some company would ripoff the JEM design. There have been Fender and Gibson ripoffs forever, by ACTUAL companies, even. Still are. So why not a Jem clone? Hey, for the price it might even be an ok starter guitar.

    Did you try this? http://www.frets.com/FRETSPages/Musician/G...lassicstr4.html

    Here's a pic: http://www.johnmayall.com/images/bud_jm_lg.jpg Doesn't look too bad if you have it slung over one shoulder like that.

    Seen this one? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...7301723712&rd=1

    And if you do it and forget you did it, and don't use it anyway ... never mind.
