Withdrawn - Whiskey barncaster tele body

What's Hot

edited August 2019 in Parts £
3 pieces of finest poplar glued together and shaped into a tele body... painted a lovely shade of daphne blue and then cast to one side in the workshop as it got dropped and fooked...

then came the idea to add a whisky crate top to it... so we did... 8mm was milled from the top of the body and the whisky crate cap glued on and shaped.

routed for tele bridge pup... the string through holes are there also and the control cavity is from the back (big enough to add a switch if you fancy)...

the thinest of coats of black nitro and even even thinner clear!... Bit of “ageing”... 4.95lbs...

the paint job will never win “paint job of the year”... but... just look at the body!...

buy it and you will instantly be more attractive to the opposite sex, coz that’s how guitars work!....

    Strictly speaker it’s whiskey with an ‘e’ because the Marrowbone Lane Distillery was in Dublin, and made Irish whiskey.  The distillery closed in 1923, so if it’s an original crate, its an old one... pedantic or what?  Anyway, worth a bump.

    I love that you kept the original Volume and Tone pot locations, it would have been easy and tempting to move them forward with the absence of a switch.

    Well done and GLWTS.
    Looks amazing !

    If you wanted to move them you could always put a cork in the hole  :)
