Cool, I've got an 80's 52' reissue that Bill Gruggett refinished for me.

This guy has 160 Telecasters, I'm catching up, I have 3 !


I'm thinking he stopped hiding them from his wife at around 10 or 12...

I love Tele's! I have three. All partscasters that I assembled. Here's my current favorite. A '52 reissue body in copper with Lindy Fralin pickups and a huge baseball bat neck which I really enjoy.

Here is my '68 Fender:



and 2 Ravenwests. I have both of these, but these are pictures from the company's web site,

The first is the neck through body model 570 T. (I know "if it's a neck through it's not a real Tele.") it's real enough for me. Mine has dots instead of bear claw fret markers, otherwise it's identical to the one on the picture.




This is the 590 T semi-hollow with a bolt on neck and P-90 pickups. Mine is exactly like this one.

This shot is from a year ago but it still looks basically the same. In this shot it had a pair of Gibson mini humbuckers and a Duncan "Hotrails" pickup in the bridge. The guitar now has a GFS humbucker at the neck slot and a set of Fender vintage "NoCaster" pickups. The normal neck pup in in the middle and the regular bridge pickup is where it should be. I have a coil tap on the humbucker and a phase switch which is activated by pulling up on the volume control. It also has Keith/Scruggs de-tuners on the 1st and 5th strings to drop them a whole tone each and a HipShot de-tuner mounted on the low E string to drop it to D. Finally it has a Parsons/White B-Bender installed inside. Also, check out the "ShoBud" guitar strap........JH in Va.

Here's one of my Favorite Telecasters. Not a true year, because of modifications, and tweaks. I call it a 1964 Tele Custom.

Here is my Squire tele that I had converted to a mandocello. I call it "The Mandocellocaster."
