FS: MJT/Allparts Esquire Build

dindudedindude Frets: 8573
One of those that I may regret but incoming means outgoing, I'm being very strict with Mistress Gas these days.

Here's what it is:

MJT alder body in Sonic Blue with light-ish, tasteful relic job. Is routed as a normal Tele, so just a pickguard and neck pickup away from full Tele conversion if wanted.
Allparts nitro finished FAT neck (these really are fat so not for those who like Modern C!). 9.5" radius, has been fret dressed and fitted with a bone nut. Very little detectable fretwear.
Barden compensated 3 saddle bridge with treble cutout. 
Gotoh vintage klusion style machine heads
Seymour Duncan Broadcsater Bridge Pickup
Wired with the Eldred mod which gives the three positions of normal bridge through the tone control, bridge bypassing the tone control, and one which has more mid / less top which sounds great for higher gain sounds.
CTS pots, Electroscocket and Switchcraft Jack socket.
Weight is 7lbs 4oz.

The neck hasn't been releic'd so there is plenty of scope to make it match the body if desired. The metal parts have had some very subtle ageing, I.e. Just the edge taken off the shineyness.

It has a decal on the headstock which says Adams (my surname), lil' B'stard (the neck started off for a Cabronita build). The decal is "locked in" with a few fine coats of nitro, so a few minutes with some wet and dry will see it removed if desired.

Comes with a Fender padded gigbag which is in excellent condition.

It's a REALLY awesome guitar - as a partscaster it hangs together beautifully - thus I really don't want to part it out. 

Collection from Pinner, Middlesex for £380, or meet up somewhere sensible. Will consider posting at cost although don't have a box at the moment.







Cheers

    I enjoyed the build, turned out great, but I'm just not a trad Tele man as much as I try to be.

    And gone. After hearing @spenietele making it sing, I realised I'm really not a Tele player!
