    go ahead and make your offer, I need to decide, because it's tough to part with the gibby. I was going to just change pups.
    My Girlfriend said to me..."How many guitars do you need?" and I replied...."How many pairs of shoes do you need?" She got really quiet.

    Yeah I think we are both still mulling it over. No done deals or anything.

    Alright... I'd consider putting my goldtop Tele up against the TeleSonic. I used to have one, and I miss it.

    Specs:
    2004 Korean-made Telecaster Custom
    Arched mahogany body with set mahogany neck
    Rosewood fretboard
    Standard hardware (sealed tuners, 6-saddle bridge)
    Abilone inlays
    Seymour Duncan '59 humbucker in the bridge
    Gibson Classic '57 humbucker in the neck
    Schaller straplocks

    It plays like a hybrid Tele/Paul... tone is all classic LP. Bridge HB has TONS of bite and grit, great for overdrive, while the neck is phat and warm, very smooth and jazzy. The hot spot, though, is both HB's together... balanced, full, and smooth... good clean or overdriven tone all around. The pickup swap was done professionally by a Fender gold-level tech, an extremely clean job.

    I have more photos available, too. Do you have any pix of yours?

    that is a lot like my tele jr... very cool.

    I restrung the telesonic with 11s last night (replaced the 12s)... much more playable and still useable for slide. Big improvement.
