The pickup(s) are supposed to be accurate copies of those found in Roy Buchanan's '53 tele 'Nancy'. | |

IF you decide on the 2-pickup version (rather than the Esquire), please let me know ASAP. I gave the workorder and Swamp Ash to Maxim today, and he's gonna get going on it very shortly... It wouldnt hurt to get all the parts out to us pretty quick, as well! |

In theory (with crossed fingers and so on..) a 1 pickup esquire should be routed for a neck pickup...the old ones were at least. | |

thats NOT going to happen (black overlay!) I will check out our 'old tele reference' and see if i can verify the routing thing (it does seem like Leo's style to just "route 'em all"...) |

Oh I know for a fact it was standard to rout for a neck pickup...oddly. | |

not so odd - STANDARDIZATION! Thats why its not uncommon to find a sunburst finish under an old "custom-color" Fender - they just made up heaps of bodies in advance, and refinished as neccessary... |

Thats a thought. I may just go for 2 pickups though, I have an esquire arriving this week. Maybe I should have a play with it and see if I like the 1 pickup wiring before any decisions are made... | |

Since he is our senior crafter, Maxim gets at least 4 weeks of holidays - (maybe even six?) | |

He is going to finish all guitars before. I hope we shall get the binding soon and he need only 15-20 days to finish your LP. | |

It had the first sealer coat a week ago and I've only just finalised the finish colour so I doubt it has gone any further since then. All the construction work is done...I think. | |
