New Tele build, TV Jones Filtertrons
Hey All,
Just finished this a little while ago and I wanted to share. USA Custom body with Filtertron route and belly carve in Candy Tangerine, WD 12" radius rosewood fret board neck, TV Jones Classic in the neck and Powertron plus bridge, Pickguardian pickguard, CTS pots and so on. My name on the peghead is just for kicks, this is just my hobby and not a business. Thanks for looking. ![]() http://i93.photobucket.com/albums/l5...t/IMG_2785.jpg http://i93.photobucket.com/albums/l5...t/IMG_2779.jpg http://i93.photobucket.com/albums/l5...t/IMG_2786.jpg http://i93.photobucket.com/albums/l5...t/IMG_2787.jpg http://i93.photobucket.com/albums/l5...t/IMG_2782.jpg Last edited by Ed Alvarado; 03-25-2011 at 10:17 AM. |

Ed, that Candy Tangerine is mouth-watering! What is that cool minimalist bridge??
Great job - tons of mojo! Curious to know how you like the pickups. |

That is gorgeous! I've been considering building a tele with TV Jones Filtertrons. Any chance you'll post some audio clips?
![]() Also, I'd like to put a maple fretboard on a tele build. Do you think it would sound good with TV Jones Filtertrons or do you need to use rosewood to round the sound off a little? |

Thank you! The pick ups are trippy and I like them so far but still getting to know them. The neck is really warm played clean but has a brightness with a dirty setting and the jury is still out on the bridge as I need to get some longer screws to bring it closer to the strings but still pretty cool. I'm still tweaking it. That's a Wilkinson Compensated short bridge. I got it here. http://store.guitarfetish.com/Cutawa...es_p_1805.html |

Great color, nice to see a Tele with 'Trons that isn't relic'd.

I'm still challenged in the clips department but I'm working on it. I think a maple fretboard would sound fine with TV Jones but if you could try before you buy the TV's that would be a good idea. |
