surfpup Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Yowza! Those are nice, mr newhaven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr newhaven Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 thanks and believe it or not they both sound/feel quite different... the rosewood is MIJ and poly and its smooth as glass and lots of fun to play with a little thinner neck...a cross between my les paul and strat (62) the Ron Kirn Barnbuster is Pine (105+ years old!) and feels like half the weight of my Rosewood...the neck is a baseball bat (and i love it!) and the sound...well its quintessential telecaster as far as im concerned alot of people either love/hate pinecasters...i happen to love them regardless of their "soft wood" status...sure it dings much easier than my rosewood....but i dont run a museum so its all gravy! thanks for the compliment surfpup!

Lowdown Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Now there's a band we don't hear enough about around here. If any of you don't have Rose Tattoo in your collection' date=' email Santa immediately. [/quote'] Bottoms up to that mate! RIP Pete Wells - 1 of the masters of Tele slide.

flyingarmadillo Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 My Am Dlx Tele and Strat. The Tele is probably my #3 six string behind the Strat and my SG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Californiaman Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 I've said it before and I'll say it again for what it's worth, the Les Paul and Telecaster combination is one of the best instrumental combination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thundergod Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 I have to disagree... IT IS the best instrumental combo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vourot Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 A buddy of mine has the Tele 52 RI with the humbucker in the neck. That to me is the ultimate Tele. But man, does that bridge pup hum like a mother%$%$%$. He needs to send it to Pat's guitars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guitargreg1993 Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 holy s**t!!!! that has got to be one of the sexiest tele's ive seen!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie brown Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 I have a little "Highway 1" "Texas Telecaster" (with noiseless Tele pickups) and every time I play it, I think..."Man, this has it all!" They can do it all...from Led Zeppelin, to blues, country, and even Jazz. I did install a 4-way selector switch, just for fun. I like that extra slightly different tone, it allows.

nikko18 Posted December 24, 2009 Author Share Posted December 24, 2009 I love teles.But if you put two humbuckers in a tele...just kill your self. Funny. That's exactly what I'm going to do with the one I'm building. Van zandt uncovered zebra humbucker in the neck' date=' van zandt true vintage single coil in the middle and a covered Seymour Duncan JB in the bridge. I've got the whole thing planned out down to the finish now. Except for wiring and controls. Still trying to decide whether to go with the simple normal tele controls but with a five way switch or have three double pots that are volume and tone for each pickup. Oh yes! I will also have coil taps on the humbuckers so I can still have single coil sounds in those position too :'] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
