Hodson Tele Custom SOLD

Nunogilberto

Selling my Hodson Tele Custom. It's a weighty piece of wood, in surf green, with edge binding on the top and a three saddle bridge. Maple neck and rosewood board. Makes all the right Tele noises and plays well.

£100 posted, or £120 with hardcase.

Ive awarded you a Fret, for although it is a meagre £100 guitar, you have bothered your arse to put proper photos up, and not crappy links.

Looks canny by the way, nice.

£100? Desperately hunting down the back of the sofa!

what's the neck like on these?  is it a modern slim neck like the recent cv squiers, or more like the old chunky baseball bats?

Nunogilberto

@blades - I would say closer to the CV - maybe a tad thicker, but certainly not a baseball bat.

thanks - currently trying to decide between a standard tele and a cabronita at the moment, so it looks like i've got some thinking to do

Nunogilberto

No probs. All I'll say is that this is a great alternative to a Squier - lovely tone and plays nicely too.

blades

it certainly looks better than any squier i've seen (well, maybe the classic vibe custom is close, but obviously only available in the dull brown burst).  any idea what the body wood is under the surf green?  and d'you mind if i ask where you're based?

Nunogilberto

I'm not entirely sure but I would guess at alder or similar because it is a bit of a heavyweight.

I'm based in South Wales, but as I say, postage is not an issue

Nunogilberto

The inevitable 'now on Ebay' bump...

Richardj

Do you think....... a standard Fender Tele would fit?

Nunogilberto

Fit what, @richardj ?

Richardj

Ah, an omission in my question that renders it stupid!

What I meant to ask was whether a Fender neck might fit.

Nunogilberto

Hmm, wouldn't like to say - it might, but without removing the neck, I'm not sure what the dimensions of the pocket are.

Has to be worth a punt anyway, right?

Richardj

PM'd.

Nunogilberto

Bump. Will include hardcase for £120.
