FS: SC Relics Tele Body

dindudedindude Frets: 8539
Bargain price as the Vintage White relic job is great but the base body is a bit British Leyland and therefore compromised:

Neck joint has the sticky out bit on the treble side that is “period correct” but to a higher level than I’ve seen before, liveable but you need to know it’s there.

A standard Fender pickguard doesn’t seem to fit without compromise (I.e. some bits seem to close to the edge).

The best fit I could make means that the screw holes for the control plate had to made too close to the route (see pic).

The Jack plate hole has been chewed up.

A bit of plugging and re-drilling and shaving of a pickguard could make it work, as could a Jack plate instead of usual Tele cup arrangement.

I don’t really want to answer a million questions on this, so offering at a bargain price for someone to take on and make use of, a this is less than a 1/3 what I paid for it.

£95 posted.

Thanks

    Thank you very much for answering my questions. Regrettably I'm not going to be able to take you up on this one.

    It looks like a great project, and is at a bargain price. I don't expect that it will be here long!
