What's Hot
xHymnalxHymnal Frets: 255
edited December 2013 in Guitars £
You guys might have seen this one for sale recently, i jumped on it, as i know Spencer REALLY knows how to make an awesome tele (i've had three off him!), and this looked like no exception... however, it was a complete impulse buy and i'm an SG man through and through. So, specs:

-Two piece ash body
-Joe Barden bridge & saddles
-US pots & glendale cap
-Bakelite pickguard
-Lindy Fralin pups
-a LOVELY flame maple neck, quite chunky with very big frets for great bending
-gotoh tuners

and a few pics:

So i'm looking for an SG! The older the better, beaten up is GOOD. Could also be tempted by an acoustic, something with a trem or a line 6 dt25/ egnater tweaker. Happy to do cash either way. May consider a sale too... 

I had over 35 good trades on the old forum etc, thanks for looking! :)

  • What sort of weight is it?

  • xHymnalxHymnal Frets: 255
    Will weigh it tomorrow, but i'd say between 7 and 8 at a guess? Very resonant and loud unplugged

    Two questions

    1) what is the fingerboard radius/ profile/camber

    2) Where is the guitar located.

    Hey. I'm fairly sure the radius is 9.5, the profile is between a C and a U, it feels a bit chunkier than my US standard and Jap strats but not as pronounced on the shoulders as a Gibson neck. It's very comfy. 

    It's currently in Lincolnshire, though it can just as easily be in Leeds as I regularly commute.

    Im possibly interested, as Ive just missed out on a American Tele Special on ebay...

     From the look of the bridge photo the body string holes don't line up with the bridge string holes, is that just an illusion or it there a misalignment? Can you do a better photo of the bridge string arrangement please?

    Karma......

    I will get a better pic though that's just an illusion; they line up perfectly :)

    for some bizarre reason my photobucket isn't uploading my media. If you PM me an email address or something i can send a bunch of pics straight over to you :)

    Thanks for photo, good to see the alignment is good. My bid on an American standard tele on eBay got accepted just now so unfortunately I've now sorted my telecaster needs. Hope this sells soon.
