The Deluxester Prototype - Sonic's foray into repeatable scratch builds

[McCreed]

Good work Sonic.

Sounds just like a tele, maybe a little fatter on the neck pickup, but otherwise nice and jangly.

A strat pickup in the neck makes all the difference in a tele IMO.
That's why the Fender Custom Shop Twisted Tele neck pickup is my favourite for that position. I've just never could bonded with the standard tele neck tone.

The TLA I built has an AL Nico 2 Single in it, recycled from my old FrankenWashie set up, it’s definitely beefier than a standard Tele sound.
