Out there, somewhere
Looks sweet.

Out of curiosity have you tried drilling out those tuners to use larger string gauges?

I would've gone with a rounder headstock to match the rounded body, but I know it's your headstock style. Looks really nice. I've always been a sucker for teles

Thanks :)

Myself I really prefer the sharp blend with the round, there are already to much round tele heads out there :D

I'm digging the contour on the horn there quite a bit, (A tele with upper fret access? Isn't that blasphemy? ;) ) and as always I love A) your choice of woods and B) the way you preserve the look of the wood rather than burying it (both physically and tonally) in layers of paint and lacquer. :yesway:

You know, I didn't quite know how to feel about a Tele-bodied beast, but that is BLOODY AWESOME :)

The reverse headstock really does give it a cool edge, and I'm definately looking forward to seeing it finished.

I've never ben a tele fan (with the exception of Jim Root's signature model, oddly :scratch:), but the top on this guitar does look very good. This alternative method of cutting appeals to me more than the traditional method. :yesway:
