    Ok, I know that we've reached critical mass for the time being, I just thought I'd put this one out there while I remember. Maybe someone will agree down the track.

    Now I know we have a stack of telecaster kits already in the lineup, but what i would really like to build is a Cabronita, either solid or thinline:




    As I said, just an idea for later or never. Thanks for listening!

    cheers,
    Gav.

    I don't think we will have much trouble convincing Adam to add one of these to the catalog sometime in the future.

    Hey, you don't need to convince me. Isn;t the bottom one just a TL-1TH with a different scratch plate, bridge and pickps? What are the specs Gavin?
    Cheers,

    Adam

    Most importantly, it's also available as a bass!


    Alder, P Bass body, Fideli'Tron™ Bass Humbucking pickup.

    Guitar specs - alder body, 2 x Fideli'Tron 'buckers, 1 x volume control and a 3 way switch (neck, neck & bridge, bridge). Vid of a couple of guys jamming with the thinline and the solid body...

    Yep exactly - thanks Brendan. The salient specs for me are: only volume and 3-way switch, no control plate on the front, and dual HH configuration - mini humbucker routes would suffice. Of course TV-Jones would be the best choice here! Subtle differences I know from the standard tele offering(s), but the result is sweet.

    cheers,
    Gav.
