    I’ll go with my Charvel which I posted in the other thread earlier:



    I also quite like the look of the Ibanez FRIX, although I played one in Andertons once and I was pretty underwhelmed with it. Looks like they might have been discontinued.
    Love that Charvel. It's not a current model?
    No, it's from 2 or 3 years ago. It's another one I shouldn't have got rid of! I've been looking on eBay fairly regularly, they don't seem to come up very often.

    I still really want to try a Schecter PT or PT Special. The Special has neck and forearm contours and the satin black finish looks great. Not really into traditional teles so much.

    Maybe better with dots and without gold hardware, but these Guitars are lovely. The less blingy the better though.

    I picked up one of the recent LTD reissues of those last year. Great guitar, it’s been my most played ever since.

    That´s what you get for not following the latest guitar news! I didn´t even know there was an LTD reissue. What were they called? I´m tempted to look for a used one.

    Bugger. Now I want one too. So that makes two of us who can't find one.

    technically these are mine till someone buys them, and I often build guitars that I will like as a result: the Tabby Special







    Many guitars have a re-sale value. Some you'll never want to sell.
    Stockist of: Earvana & Graphtech nuts, Faber Tonepros & Gotoh hardware, Fatcat bridges. Highwood Saddles.

    Pickups from BKP, Oil City & Monty's pickups.

    This is still one of my fave self builds.



    Beautiful solid RW neck and a tapped, overwound Oil City pickup.

    Does what it says on the tin.  And it doesn’t even need the tin.
    Having trouble posting images here?  This might help.

    his is mine, a hardtail Strat with through body stringing and a tele bridge and neck.  Pickups are McNeely T-Bar Bridge and S-Bar middle and neck.  Switches give any combination of the 3 pickups.

    This one, made for me by @SteveRobinson is not a Tele, but looks pretty close to one.

    I tried out a Kelly Tele in a Dublin music shop before lockdown.  Lovely instrument for not a lot of cash.

    Cheapo Tele copy from Bax I bought to mess around with. Its turned out to be a really good instrument after a bit of fettling.
