UNPLANNED DOWNTIME: 12th Oct 23:45
FS: SC Relics Tele Body
Bargain price as the Vintage White relic job is great but the base body is a bit British Leyland and therefore compromised:
Neck joint has the sticky out bit on the treble side that is “period correct” but to a higher level than I’ve seen before, liveable but you need to know it’s there.
A standard Fender pickguard doesn’t seem to fit without compromise (I.e. some bits seem to close to the edge).
The best fit I could make means that the screw holes for the control plate had to made too close to the route (see pic).
The Jack plate hole has been chewed up.
A bit of plugging and re-drilling and shaving of a pickguard could make it work, as could a Jack plate instead of usual Tele cup arrangement.
I don’t really want to answer a million questions on this, so offering at a bargain price for someone to take on and make use of, a this is less than a 1/3 what I paid for it.

It looks like a great project, and is at a bargain price. I don't expect that it will be here long!
Whats the weight ? and what is the wood ? and what do you mean by the base body is a bit british Leyland ?
cheers
