I am wondering is there a possibility I could get a Telecaster with a 7 string modification. I prefer the telecaster to using Jazz arch tops. Have they ever been done before? I am aware the neck needs to be wider, pickups and bridge plate as well. Thanks

Are you a George Van Eps fan?

Yep, but the OP mentioned a 7-string archtop jazz box, that's why I did mention of Van Eps in my reply.

Not sure the Van Eps really went into production; the Gregory neither...
