The last build I posted had a neck humbucker with a vol/coil splitter (push pull)
and during his sound check the owner was nothing but smiles.
It gave him the "quack" that the Tele wouldn't have had without it.
There are good reasons to having a 4wire HB and that's why we have them.
 
Very cool Zonno that you're not alone and have the interests. Best to you with it all.
 
 
 
For what's it worth..just something to think about..
I'd consider moving that master vol back to the other controls and filling
the space with at least a coil split and maybe a 3 way ....I'll let you trace down
what a 3 way would get you :)

The unique sounds of the different neck position pickups can certainly inspire a desire to have more than one to choose from!

Why is it, the more I read English written from someone in the Netherlands, it is more accurate than most of the Americans I know?
 
I worked on a remote media player phone app with someone from there and it was the same thing.  I wish the "locals" cared more about how they communicate!
 
Good job Zonno!

Craigb, I think it may have something to do with using their intelligence for something other than watching the Jersey Shore.  I could be wrong about that, though.

Enablesr...  you and Rain.
 
I hope you love it. I've been wanting a good Tele. I'm in the process of talking myself into it and of course a new amp. Maybe a Blues Jr. or a Deluxe Reverb RI, or a Princeton... maybe an AC-something, maybe a new Line-6 tube combo. A dobro and a banjo.... an SM-7. There is always so much I want. I see these posts and it fires me up.
Seriously... congrats. It looks sweet.

Julien, it works both ways. Now that I have THE Les Paul I wanted, I'm looking at my Strat thinking that she'd at least deserve a bit of attention before I officially retire her.
 
This morning also, I even found myself looking at Teles.
 
And I'm also checking out little tiny amps - no tubes or nothing, just little travel things. I might grab one of those small $100-ish Orange or Fender or Marshall...
 

 

 
Or, what looks like potentially the most interesting (and it comes in red too):
 

 
Though sonically I'd expect the Marshall to be closer to home.

I had to start with (not this one but the model before) this.
Probably a mistake because now I have over 22 micro amps.
 
The Marshall is the only one with 10". Now that I have so many
with under 6" speakers I'll probably start collecting the mini ones with
10/12".
 
Like this and this.

That Blackstar looks sweet!
