NGD - a Telecaster

What's Hot
Paul_CPaul_C Frets: 8085

No surprise there, but it is a very nice one :)

The frets need a polish and I'm not a fan of the domed knobs so I'll likely swap them for some flat-topped ones, but otherwise it's a very nice guitar.

    It takes the current grand total to 20, though the once spotty one is in bits waiting for me to paint it and I have a second Electron green one in an unopened box upstairs which I'm planning to refinish once I've done the other one.

    I'm still debating what to do with the other natural finished one as it's very nice too (and a good weight) but it's quite likely I'll keep both.

    I saw the thread title and I knew who'd posted it.

    In the very nicest way possible, you're a madman :-)

    HNGD.

    I see two extremely different guitars, and I dare anyone on here to tell me I'm not right.

    I was going to say you can have one too many gloves, but I suppose that depends how you look at it.

    Ironically I just saw the "tribute" post about OJ Simpson immediately before reading this.

    Now I like a tele, but 20 of them… that is true dedication to the shrine of the great Keef. :) Keep on rocking and rolling buddy.

    Is there a plan for once you’ve got them all, what comes next?

    Other than playing them and surrounding myself with Telecaster goodness, nothing.

    It's no great difference from my mum's collection of china, except I can do a bit more than keep them in a glass fronted cabinet and dust them now and again.

    So one has P90s and one has humbuckers @mankytom ;. One has a pick guard one doesn’t. One has a slightly different hue of golden beauty.  Couldn’t be more different! I won’t even go in to varying weights to put the point across even more. Both look pretty cool to me (and of course, not similar)

    Also, not meaning to hijack, but that tele also looks lovely @Paul_C ;
