To my knowledge, this is the only one of its kind in the US. Linked video is of the actual guitar for sale. Tele like appointments include the maple fretboard, slim headstock, Butterscotch Blonde finish, single-ply black pickguard, pickup configuration and two-knob control layout (pickup selector where the tone should be), and then everything goes wild with the Stratocaster shaped body. This guitar features a basswood body and U-shape maple neck, as well as a 25.5” scale length, 9.5” radius and 21 vintage frets. Other functional appointments include a three-saddle vintage-style Telecaster bridge – complete with brass barrel saddles – vintage-style tuning machines and knurled dome control knobs. two vintage-style single-coil Tele pickups are included, and are controlled via a relatively unorthodox control layout that swaps out the three-way selector switch for a three-way rotary control knob (once I got the hang of it, I wound up really liking it).  Due to this appointment, there is no tone control, with the secondary knob instead taking charge as the master volume parameter. From a sound and playability standpoint, this guitar is pure Tele.  The bridge pickup is nice and bright, and the neck warm, but not too muddy. I've played this guitar out only once, and only for a couple songs so it's in beautiful shape. Feel free to message me with any questions!
