Just taken possession of this beautiful guitar from master luthier Valeriy Vaschenko but I can't keep it - I'm just not a tele guy. It has top of the line everything, including a one-piece lightweight swamp ash body, Lollar pickups (Charlie Christian neck / Special T bridge), and a thin nitro finish.
The CC in the neck is astounding. Check out videos by Tim Lerch to see how good that pickup is. The CC pocket is routed for P90 size in this guitar so you can swap it out for your favourite P90 if you choose to do so. Very versatile instrument.
The guitar is offered for sale at $2150 shipped & PP'd - includes brand new Gator hardcase.
For trades, I'm interested in single cut guitars, Kemper Profiler, or maybe an Axe-FX II. Let me know what you have.
