congrats Alex,cant wait to see this puppy

 

[harvested]

Congrats on your Custom Shop ... that's really good news for you guys...
but why only 45mm for the nut?? do you like it more than Stefs 47mm ??? I know that you guys use also the new ESP Horizon 7 wich has a 45mm according to the site..
why do you like it more?? could you expand on that subject???

the reason I;m asking is beacuse my 7 string has a 45mm nut and I tend to like a wider neck..
thanks and congratulation...again

Dude sweet! You deserve this. Sounds like a sweet custom, though I'm suprised you haven't gone for a 27" scale.

Also +1 on a sandblasted finish.

 

[BlindingLight7]

I'd buy it if it were a Sig model, sexy. I'd be a meshuggah whore as well and make it a black stain though

 

[sicstynine]

congrats to you and the guys!

8-12 months waiting for your own custom? who cares! it pays.

 

[Marcus]

Any word from Ben and Zach about what they're considering?

 

[AHelm]

LTD Alex Wade signature tele would be sweet for poor people like me

 

[Necky379]

yeah maybe this will make esp consider releasing a tele 7. congrats on the guitar though, cant wait to see pics!

 

[Harry]

Congrats man, this is awesome news!

 

[Triple7]

Congratulations dude, that sounds like it's going to be sick. I think since it's a Tele you have to do the pickguard, it will look so sexy.

 

[richcastle66]

oh man thats gonna be fuckin awesome. too bad you wont have it for warped

 

[behemoth91]

just a suggestion but how bout a gibraltor custom bridge? everything else is beast thought man. simple and to the point.

I would go with Swamp Ash over Alder. I get a lot of G&L USA teles here at my shop, and I always like the way the ash ones sound more than the alder ones. The alder ones sound great too but Ash seems to have a more complex tone to it with a bit more chunk and throaty mids to it (while still having a snappy top end).

Then again if you're using actives it probably won't make much of a difference.

Congrats dude, exciting times

EDIT: Here are a few examples of G&L teles w/ ebony boards that I've ordered, perhaps for some inspiration: Would be sick as 7-strings

 

[CloudAC]

Congrats on the CS, sounds like a brutal guitar

I saw you guys at Inverness in March, you guys were damn awesome!

 

[BlindingLight7]

I'll vouch about swamp ash, get it instead of alder man!

 

[matty2fatty]

congrats, and the new track sounds awesome, can't wait for the new album

 

[ittoa666]

I just found my new favorite tele.

 

[simonXsludge]

I believe I'm going to go for a 7 string tele, based loosely around my hero Stephen Carpenters custom tele 7.

that's all i needed to know to be sure it's gonna be awesome. i'd take that carpenter tele over pretty much everything else.

congrats, dude.

 

[budda]

Get a burl maple top on that bad boy

 

[Malacoda]

I would say no pickguard, but everything else sounds awesome.
