Introduced this build to the JVM210... All I can say is ... ;) ;) ;) ... ;) ;) ;) ... ;) ;) ;) ...
This build and the ES-1TL are the most creative and inspirational of all my builds leaving very little interest in playing other peoples work ...
It took me a few hours but I have decided that I need a new phaser pedal on the effects loop.. the Joyo Vintage phase is quite fine and okay (much like a cheap version of the Phase 90) but it doesn't do the Tele much justice...getting a TCE Helix to replace it ... and a Hyper Gravity just because...
-
All good things often come to an end, and so it goes with the PBG neck PU in this build.... Postie delivered its replacement, a Fender N3 noiseless...
Ya,all can guess what I'll be doing on Boxing day...

The denim looks badass man. nice herd by the way
-
Buggar !!!
I bought the N3 off a private vendor on Ebay... and after putting it in found it made nil noise... I had faith that it wasn't going to be a dud, but it seems this PU is now destined for the rewind pile.... coil resistance of 1.5Mohm, which about 20 times what it should be.
Oh well,... the PBG neck PU lives on in this scratch build.... which I don't mind so much as it does sound pretty good... just annoyed the Ebay buy has turned into a waste of $49....

Bugger about the PU, but killer build Marcel

Thanks JohnH...
A killer that sounds the way I like Tele's sounding..... I honestly can't complain at all about the PBG neck PU as in this Alder bodied build it does sound pretty darn good. And it matches up well with the Yibuy rails bridge PU.
There's a saying amongst guitarists... 'The axe next to your amp is most probably your favourite axe.' and right this moment (and for the past few months) I have my JVM210 and my VT40X parked right behind this denim Tele build... with my ES-1TL, ply body Strat, PRS-1H and my cased up Gibson LP and Fender F-25 all on the other side of the room... mind you, all my axe's are within a few steps or arms reach...

Well, we had a real outing....
A few emails, A trip to Melbourne, A 2.5hr drive across Melbourne traffic from Hoppers Crossing to Ferntree Gully... and I finally go to meet a dude who I hold in high esteem. While he himself couldn't play my build he convinced his bandmate to give it a go...
Anyways, I video'd it, and a very Bluesy sample is here..... Enjoy...

Very smooth, always fun getting others to play your builds. Anytime anyone who can play comes to my house I get them to have a go on the builds, its always a blast.

There's something about the Telecaster that really makes it a guitar that's perfect for playing the Blues, my custom Telecaster has a very bluesy quality about it too, I think the Tonerider Hot Classics pickups that I installed in it have something to do with it.

Great to have someone else play a guitar you made you can tell by the the look on there face if they like it
