Show your Hot Rodded Teles

[Texsunburst59]

Here’s my ‘72 Fender Tele Custom with an ‘80 Gibson Tarback in the neck and a Seymour Duncan Little’59 in the bridge.

This one already came custom HR’d from the factory.
My ‘03 Tom Anderson Hollow T Drop Top HSH.

This isn’t your grandfather’s country Tele.

Just got it.

Not really hot rodded, just regular stock Tele type pickups. Pine body. Just gave it a new neck.

These are pre-sale peeks.

Actually I just gave that guitar a switch tip that has a setscrew. Tele switch tips are the worst for some reason.

That G&L is KILLER.

Not sure of the body but this has a park lane neck, Manlius broadcaster bridge p/u and Manlius T-90 in the neck

And I’m gonna count this as a tele. It’s my “single barrel” tele. Tonebomb body stained with bourbon and analine dye, Warmoth V neck and a Seymour Duncan BG1400 pickup

I always wanted a Hot Rod Tele.

I was just considering building one, then I came across a Charvel at a serious discount.

I figure, if I strip this thing of all it's hardware and put on stuff I like, I am still ahead of the game.

I feel that; I spec'd out my Warmoth specifically to be like a San Dimas 2

I am really surprised of the quality of this guitar.

I was concerned it was made in Mexico because the MIM strats feel really junky to me.

The body and the neck on this thing is really nice.

They can definitely be hit or miss; I have an old MIM Standard Tele that is killer too

 

[guitarnate2000]

here is the ONLY tele style I have ever owned.. a real head turner. love it... hard to put down

 

[DistortED]

MJT Double Bound Ash Body in Silver Mist, Fender USA Elite Neck Ebony board, Fralin SP43 Pickups, T-Tune Bridge, Callaham Control Panel/Knobs and String Tree, Gotoh Staggered Vintage Tuners and Fender Mint Guard.

Next on Deck will be this one piece Musikraft Mahogany body. Planning on using some Odie oil on it and a reverse headstock Musikraft neck down the road. Still in the planning stages.
