Perfectly Setup and Ready to Play !!!! The finish on this guitar is absolutely beautiful, but there are quite a few pin holes in the lacquer, as well as some low spots in the Burl Knots.  I've slashed the original listed price by $200 bucks for these imperfections.  If you're a player that's more concerned with the tone and playability of the guitar and not so fussy about a perfect 'showroom' finish, then take advantage of this deal.I have not drilled the screw holes for the Parchment spring cover on the back of the guitar.  There are lots of players who choose not to have a spring cover, so if you purchase the guitar, let me know if you want me to screw the cover in place.  If not, the cover will still ship with the guitar.  Check out the pics with the cover on and off the guitar.Feel free to contact me for additional photos or information….

Only once in my life have I played a guitar that had such a variety of sounds, not to mention how comfortable this guitar is....It's like it was custom made for me. I've been playing it now for three straight hours and only put it down long enough to email my comments.  I have been collecting guitars since the sixties, with some of the guitars valued at over $100k. I thought my 359 Gibson was going to be my performing guitar, but that has all changed. I will be performing with my new Tele in Nashville next weekend, then Chicago, and finally back to Nashville. It's really like you taylor made this guitar for me. Thanks so much, I'll be in touch." (JJ Jennings - Georgia)"I love this guitar! Damn, my wife has to fight me to go to bed. Thanks so much, KJ." (C. Errickson - New Jersey) "There's an old saying that says, "Always buy the Best, you'll never be disappointed" and that's where I'm at with with my purchase of my McCloud Tele, from KJ. It's not hard to tell that both my new Tele and KJ are related, both top quality in their own right. This was my first "hands off" purchase of a guitar and a big leap for me, don't we all want to play it before we buy it? KJ was totally understanding in this regard and was more than accommodating with both extra pics and answers to a pile of questions. His assurance that he stands behind what he builds was a great comfort. Communication, shipping and follow up couldn't be better. I'd like to thank those who purchased ahead of me for their positive reviews of their purchases, it meant a lot in my decision to pull the trigger on my purchase. Would I purchase again? Already thinking of what I'd like KJ to create!" (J. Toohey - Canada)"Just received my new guitar, I don't even know what to say. I have a room full of Gibsons and Fenders and the quality of this blows them away.  If you're interested in one, just BUY IT. you will not be disappointed. I am already inquiring about a custom build." (Chris E. - New Jersey)"I can say without hesitation that your McCloud Tele might  be the biggest bang for the buck I have ever experienced. Your workmanship is first class, it plays like a dream and the tone is inspiring. And it looks great! When I get a guitar that I don’t want to stop playing I know I have a jewel." (John T. - New Hampshire)"I just received my THIRD McCloud Telecaster, and I'll say again, that your guitars are probably the best bang for the buck out there. I enjoy playing your McCloud Teles every bit as much, or more than the Fender Master Built Teles that I have, which cost considerably more." (John T. - New Hampshire)"I don't know where to start... I honestly think I will only purchase guitars from you from now on. This is by far the best looking/playing guitar I've ever experienced (Keep in mind I've owned and played many guitars and some retail for $3400)."   (Adam D. - Georgia) "Just got my McCloud tele today... maybe the nicest guitar I've ever owned (and I've owned a LOT!). Compared to my Gibson LP Special Double Cut, the tele blows it away." (John B. - Ontario, CN) "I've been playing guitar for 12 years in bands and as a studio musician and decided to finally treat myself to a nice guitar. When I played one of these I seriously haven't played on a nicer guitar both feel and sound. On top of the fact that it is extremely gratifying buying from someone that is as passionate about making guitars as I am about making music. 'KJ' has thought of everything to make your playing experience top level." (Colin R. - Oregon) "I had the pleasure of playing several McCloud custom guitars the other day and I was blown away. I brought in an American Standard Fender Telecaster to compare, and it didn't hold a candle next to the McCloud teles. KJ had one setup with Billy Gibbons pearly gate humbuckers and another with P90's and a Bigsby tremolo that were exquisite. KJ makes the most beautiful guitars, and as good as they look, they sound even better. I'm looking forward to working with KJ on a custom guitar that fits my style, both in form and function. For anyone who is looking for a one of kind instrument, I highly recommend checking out McCloud Guitars." (Tyler F. - Oregon)
