For sale is my Les Paul / Telecaster Hybrid Custom Guitar.
The body is a Solid Mahogany body with a Maple cap like a Les Paul but its a flat top instead of a carved arch top. Paint is an aged nitro finish done by the amazing crew at MJT Customs, it is Black over Aztec Gold with Moderate aging to show the Gold thru the wear spots in the black, accenting the Aged gold hardware. Equipped with an aged gold Bigsby Tremolo, aged vintage style Fender Tele ashtray bridge plate modified to accommodate the bigsby. Compensated Graph Tech saddles. Aged control plate, knobs and toggle switch cap. Emerson pots, a genuine 50's NOS Sprague Black beauty .022uF Capacitor. Switch craft 3 way switch. Alnico 3 pickups in the neck and bridge, from John @ Dawgtown Customs. Wired this Broadcaster style. Aged Fender vintage spec gold tuners, Tusq nut. The neck is a custom order from Hilmire Guitars, it's Ebony on Wenge with no fret markers and gold medium jumbo frets and has brass side dots. 12" radius and a modern C shape, not baseball fat, but slightly more meaty than a modern Strat neck, it plays smooth and fast. The back of the neck and both sides of the headstock have been sealed with shellac and the back of the neck has been find sanded from 1500grit to 8000grit.
This guitar sounds fantastic, the amount of sustain is almost unreal. Pluck a note and it will ring for almost 45 seconds. The pickups are very will balanced, in the middle position the humbucker and the single coil sound great together. Both pickups sound excellent on their own as well, this is one of my favorite sets from John @Dawgtown, and I've owned 8 different sets.
This bad boy is heavy, I do not have a scale but it's got to be about 9lbs. I do not have a case for this at the moment. The guitar would be expertly packaged and a guitar box would be used. I spare no expense in packaging. I have sold many guitars and never had a problem.
This will be shipped FedEx or UPS and Reverb protection will be included along with a required signature upon delivery.
I try to ship everything the same day the payment clears. A couple things I would like to mention:
An extra hole at the top of the headstock where I moved the string tree.
The bottom left screw for mounting the pickup ring snapped off in the hard maple top and I couldn't get it out. Now the head of the screw is just glued to the ring, for aesthetics, nothing functionally wrong with it, the other three hold it down plenty tight.
Also I had to move the bigsby over just slightly and had to make new mounting holes in the body, they can't be seen unless you take the bigsby off, but I figured I would disclose it. Everything mentioned is unnoticeable except the small hold in the headstock where the string tree was. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. SHIPPING TO THE CONTINENTAL US ONLY THANKS
