Show Off Your TELECASTERS!!!

I'm sure you're all sick of looking at it by now.

I think I speak for the universe when I say I never get tired of looking at that guitar.

My latest builds.

All these tele's are fantastic. Now I'm getting the urge to fix mine.

So many guitars, such little money.

Took new shots of my tele. I recently installed a Dimarzio Twang King neck pickup. Big improvement from the old bassy stock neck pickup. Lotsa clarity there. Freshly strung with Elixir strings.

I don't normally like non-Fender Teles, but that is a really nice looking guitar!

Ok, here's my main 2:



'96 MIM (Poplar body)
Mods:
Pickups: Bridge: SD Broadcaster, Neck: 59n
Vintage bridge with 3 compensated brass saddles
Fender locking tuners
Fender no-load tone control
BWB pickguard
Completely rewired and pickup cavities copper shielded





'09 American Standard Ash

Pickups: Fender CS Nocaster set





I've also got this one:
'94 MIM "Squier Series"

Has all the MIM standard hardware transplanted from the '96 MIM above.

The output jack is also in a nice place!

Thanks man! I've played a some MIM Fender Telecasters and this Fernandes telecaster feels and sounds better than them. I got it for roughly $300. Serial number Y92008, although I can't find much info about this guitar probably because it's a Japan only model.

The output jack is also in a nice place!

Definitely. I thought about replacing it with an electrosocket, but the jack cup was perfectly installed, and does not wiggle.

Eh, might as well - here are my two Teles:

The tux I got from a pawn shop around the corner for a pair of Bose I wasn't using, and $40. The other one is parted from ebay - the body, neck, and bridge are Mighty Mite.



Standard switching in the Squier, and 4-way in the Sunburst, plus a minivaritone - a two way switch that chooses between two different value tone caps.

Never posted any pics since I got it done, here's mine:



Started life as a white Peavey Reactor, only stock parts left are the body, bridge, jack plate, and ferrules. Hand carved arm and belly cuts, pickup and switch routing by my father-in-law, rattlecan flat black paint job, graphtech saddles from a bro, Warmoth 59 roundback neck, graphtech nut, Schaller M6 tuners, home made pickguard and truss rod cover, BG1400, Demon/490R hybrid, Bournes fancy pots, lot's 'o finger prints, and a tone knob that don't match.

[Franknfilms]

Very well used (and scratched) Warmoth ash body, mighty mite neck, locking tuners, gfs mini hum in the neck, tb-4 jb in the bridge. Headstock decal on the way

Very nice, Evan!

The one on the left is a Seymour Duncan Vintage Pro DT-250M, and the third (on the right) a Navigator N-TE-380LTD/ON... also made by ESP.

There's been some nice contributions to this thread since I last checked! Nice Teles everyone!
