Did someone say Telly?

I picked this up from Jim Shine sans pickups and bridge. No problem, I have a small stockpile of Kahlers and pickups :lol
It was originally 1 vol, 1 tone with the 3 mini toggles. Apparently some prior owner had changed it to and added a 3-way toggle and removed the middle pickup. Jim had plugged the extra hole.

I drilled the hole back and wired it with my own nutty plan:

• 3-way toggle that controls Neck - Neck/Bridge - Bridge
• the first mini toggle adds Middle
• the second mini toggle is only Middle
• the third mini toggle is a kill switch

The neck pickup is a Lil' 59, middle is a Duncan Five Two, and the bridge is a Duncan EVH.

It works and sounds great! The finish is beat to hell so believe it or not it is already taken back apart and getting shipped out for refin tomorrow.

I've been jonesin' for a tele-bodied guitar... looks like yours is going well.

And it's a neck-thru too! Nice axe! I had a bolt-on I got from John (jgcable) that looked very similar. Sometimes I wish I'd kept that guitar. It was a very early ser. too.

Tim, where's the axe being sent to for the refin???

[Johnnyryche]

I'd love a tele with similar spec to that. What color is it going to be? Are you sticking with black?

Just went and bought the paint today. I'm using REAL Krylon on this one....I don't use the cheap shit on USA guitars..
