WTB - Tele neck for my discardocaster
Edit - Just looking for a second Neck now...
I am on the lookout for old Telecaster parts. At the moment I need pretty much everything - body, neck, hardware, the lot.
I am looking out for old, used, discarded and unloved bits in particular. I'd like the final build to be relic and well used, and so properly owned wear is a bonus!
Some specifics:
Body - any colour considered - but Nitro finish so I can lacquer check it. Pref would be off white, butterscotch etc. Thinline a real bonus
Neck - Don't mind abused, but must have good frets as I don't want to have to get it refretted - pref. Rosewood, pref 9.5 radius, but hey..
Hardware - old, used, vintage, whatever - WYG?
Pickguard - would like to do an esquire variant so one of these would be good too - proper blackguard nocaster style preferred - would like a tele one too so I can chop and change
Pickups - not decided yet, but would like a twangy roaring monster to do an esquire variant tho.
Control plate - got a vintage style cloth wires plate and pots? Or an esquire plate ready wired? I'm lazy.
Most things considered, but don't be offended if I say no - I have an idea in my head, and I'll know when the right thing comes along...
