Plays great, sounds great, looks great. I don't pick it up enough, then I do and I plug it in and it's just awesome. Volume and Tone knobs are super responsive.

Pretty sure I posted this before, but not sure I posted it since I Esquire'd it. It's a MJT roasted pine body with a chunky-ass WD Rosewood (Back and fretboard cap) neck. Bootstrap Pickups Pretzel bridge pickup.

And my Esquire, which is a cheap approximation of Zhivago's (not intentionally though), with a Squire body and roasted Maple neck.

My humble contribution to the Telecaster Appreciation Thread:
A late 80s Korean Squier
Neck has been through a lot, including some new tuner holes for Kluson style tuners.
I like it!

Yes! So glad this is having a mini-revival. I love the blonde/white/maple look too . And bound teles. Maybe I just love all Teles
Nowhere in my flat I can get a decent group shot unfortunately, so this is the best I can do right now.

I have nothing to offer anybody, except my own confusion?

Nice! I have a Matney b-bender that I’m looking to do up exactly like this with a chunky roasted maple neck hopefully flat radius.ThePearDream wrote: ↑Thu Feb 13, 2025 7:56 amAnd my Esquire, which is a cheap approximation of Zhivago's (not intentionally though), with a Squire body and roasted Maple neck.
