Hey, thanks, that's the first compliment I've ever gotten on my poor little Tele!
That screw on the side of Chris of Arabia's is a side adjust for the truss rod, mine has one too. It's really not my favorite thing about that neck, to be honest.

Bad photo, but here is mine. Someday I have to take new pics of my lady...and post a bigger one.



Not a great photo, but:
'72 tele custom ri, MIM. Stock apart from a pul pot to split the WRHB. Jumbo refret.
Haven't been using it much live recently, but it's all over the record I'm doing right now. By the time we're done the whole right-hand side of the stereo mix will be tele...


I got a Fender Tele made of metal with a light- blue purple burst thing paint job. The neck is rosewood. No one knew what to make of it when it came into the guitar shop so I got it half off for $600. I never play it cuz its rare and weird so it sits in a case. Someday it may be worth something. It does have a nice jazz tone.![]()

The dude that played with Ben Harper here in Portugal last night (caught the concert on tv - awesome btw), had a guitar exactly like Chris of Arabia's... only exception was he had a regular tele neck pup. I thought it was him for a couple of minutes and that he had gone from minibucker back to tele lol

Bump for a new-to-me MIM. I got it for my birthday this year. The pickguard's definitely gonna get changed to a white pearloid, and the pickups and pots/switch/knobs have gotta go, but the neck feels nice and it sounds ok unplugged. Frets are ok. It'll be kick as$ after a couple of upgrades.
Here's a mock-up of the after upgrades...

Stoner Rock and Stoner Metal are interchangeable terms describing sub-genres of rock and metal music. Stoner rock is typically slow-to-mid tempo, low-tuned and bass-heavy. It incorporates elements of Psychedelic Rock, Blues-Rock and Doom Metal into a more repetitive and riff-centred style. Melodic vocals and 'retro' production are also common traits.
