Sounds like a challenge.

Even if I could pull it off, the one B-Bender Tele I have played was so heavy that it turned me off to them.

Warmoth site says you need a min 50 identical bodies or necks to get a builder discount. I wonder if there is another quality builder to go to? If it happens, it will be quality.

I think we'd do that inferno body color I posted above, maple fingerboard w modern compound radius, and a 5 hole white or cream pickguard, maybe MOT.

From there build a consensus on the bridge style, tuners, pickups, etc. and then offer the option to have a different set of pickups shipped to me if someone wasn't thrilled with what was agreed to.

Split shaft tuners, vintage bridge with three brass saddles...needs to be old school.

So we all buy two?

I wish AUTF would have bought Vintage 47 amps. We'd be rolling in pure tube goodness.

I'm down, thats how I built that pink one.

I’m indifferent. Whatever is agreed will be cool.

Must have Surly gates pickups.

Transparent Sunset Orange could be cool too; satin, cream pickguard, vintage tint neck, with vintage style appointments?Screenshot_20211006-222405_Chrome.jpg

I like transparent orange more than flake, although I wonder if that requires using alder or ash over poplar (ie if that impacts cost, although that doesn’t bother me either)

Edited by Celery Man

IN on the SurlyCaster.  LOVE that Transparent Sunset as well.  And whether we go the classic look or a mix, I'm a follower, not a leader.   I've always wanted another Tele to leave in in open tuning for Stones stuff.....or something with really hot, growly pickups.  

Here is a real result satin transparent orange. Warmoth site images are always hit or miss. You would be pretty reliant on hoping for a good grain pattern.

"How much was the raffle ticket, honey?"

"Uh, about $1,100."

Single here. Ship it in any damn box you want.

I can't find the Hell Yes I Want A Surly Guitar option, so mark me down for the Hell Yes option.

Can you ship in a box that says “not a guitar”? 

Be careful what you wish for...

Put me down for a sparkle or a tube amp some surly gates what ever I’m in fuckers!

We need to have a get together where everyone can play their Surlycasters. What songs sound good with 50 guitars? I guess we could come close to playing all the overdubs in Zep songs at once.

I instantly thought of this.....and a bonus for the drummer.

Working on a new project. Going to make it a 2/2 tone/volume. Adding new pots, pickups and tuners.

This is an epiphone SG (circa 2013).

How much extra would a double-bound orange 60's Tele cost us?

WHICH ELF IS THIS?

Thanks, I appreciate the help.

Edited by Napoleon

That's the elf who packs up heroin for Santa to leave in your stocking.

Just needs a 3 saddle bridge, but otherwise, it's perfect.

Thought on a Fender cdn-240sce nat acoustic guitar? Getting one for “free” and haven't played a guitar since 2004. I need something to do. 
 

anybody played this guitar before? Thoughts? Advice? Smartass comments? 

It's free. Play the shit out of it.

Yeah that’s the plan. Or at least annoy the shit out of my apartment neighbors. 

 

I assume you already own The Lightning Fingers of Roy Clark.

If you do not, go buy it poste haste.

Oh hell yes on the double bound tele
Since you've asked...

Im still toying with this idea. Since we seem to be after that inferno flake sparkle, I was looking at modeling them after one of Don Rich's sparkle Tele's. Looking at his, they all have binding. Like a checker pattern. I can't find that pattern at Warmoth bit there is similar To add binding a is $85 per at Warmoth, thats $ 170 extra for a double binding. Im down for the extra $$$ as long as everybody else is. I'd prefer to just do the top binding.

If I do this, it will be on the 1st part of 2022. After the remodel I promised myself a 6 month break from projects, and Warmoth is like 10 to 14 weeks out on parts anyway.

So far I count 11 users here who say they are in. Ill confirm with those before moving forward. Please reach out via PM if you are seriously interested.

Here's the pic I got with the nearest binding I could find to Don Rich's.
