My buddy ordered several years ago one like that. Didn't blow me away and did not stand the test against my MIM Telecaster with Charlie Christian PU :idk:
He thought the same and sold it after some weeks...

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

The thought of R. Kelly (of "Trapped In the Closet pt. Eleveventyfive" & peeing on teenagers whilst wearing a mask fame) rocking a Charlie Chirstian equipped Tele is making my day right now.

:lol: REAL TALK :lol:

And Uni, that is good to know. I've never actually heard a Charlie Christian PU. I just love the way they look! Dumb dumb dumb, I know...

A fine set of guitars, here. Look at that one closest to us... Tele bridge and a P-90 in the neck. WEIRD!

I think that's the only type of Tele I would end up owning, one with a P90 neck. I think it would lead to interesting toanzz. SX has really cheap ones with a 90 in the neck, I think I might have to save up for one or something

I'm waiting patiently for my Rice pine tele ... actually not so patiently.
In the meantime I put together a partscaster with a chunky Protocaster rosewood fboard neck, Callaham hardware, Don Mare DanOCasters (awesome pickups), and Peghead nitro body.
Oops, only pic I have has the Bill Cook maple neck on it.

I've seen guitars shaped like Texas before, but I've never seen a guitar shaped like Austria before. :idea: Awesome. :thumb:
