Re: Cross Guitars - projects and restorations
Hmm, not a million miles away from this vintage model I just found out about, a Framus Junior 6... Though the reference is clear if one happens to know about the pawn shop stuff.

Re: Cross Guitars - projects and restorations
I absolutely love that. I've actually been asking myself, "how would you make a Telecaster out of a Sixty-Six?" and that pretty much answers that.

Thanks!
I can't take full credit for the concept but I'm pretty happy with the design!

Most of the gutty works are done!
routed for a stealth pickup in the neck position.
String thru holes lined up perfectly.

My 3D printed string tree arrived today.
It's smaller than what they used on the originals, but I still went with the 3 holes.

And couldn't resist stringing it up to see the crazy string tree alignment.
