    caught the end of an interview with Slash on the Culture Show. This album sounds very interesting... Has Velvet Revolver bitten the dust now? (their 2nd album was a shocker!)

Hybrid Shape Shifter Tele on the way

Image
I'm building a new guitar. So three things influenced this one.   A hybrid tele / Strat body I saw, an interesting neck and particularly an interesting electronics option.  Here are the bits as arrived.  The body is a telecaster shape, telecaster neck pocket, telecaster control cavity but routed for 3 Strat pickups and a Strat style vibrato bridge.  The control cavity makes it different to many hybrid Telecasters a la the John Mayer model which have a more Strat like control cavity.  The body was advertised as "mahogany" it's quite red in nature but nice looks to be two piece centre jointed.  The neck is mahogany with a maple fingerboard and a maple skunk strip.

My requirement was for a nice playable 12 string electro-acoustic.  Most of my stuff is as you know acoustic rock orientated in the David Gray, John Mayer genre.  I'd had my eye on a Gordon Giltrap for a couple of years now anyway since a) I'm a big Giltrap fan b) I'd heard said Mr Giltrap use the 6 string version live a couple of times and was impressed c) it seems incredible value for money. Now then my life was made a touch my complicated by the appearance of the Paul Brett signature 12string.  This is a slight oddity in that this is a parlour sized guitar which to be honest wasn't my initial desire but has received rave reviews and also has been designed as a 12string from the ground up - unlike the Gordon Giltrap which is an adaptation of a 6 string design.  Not unusual to be fair most 12 strings ar...
