Hi guys,

here's a poem you might like that I wrote about my Lite Ash Tele:

Telecaster by Eddie Castellan

I was among the
looking glass veins
of her natural ash,
studying nakedness

making harsh jangles
and elemental bite,
separating notes like
hawks and sliced roots

I felt the sun trickling
down my neck,
to my fingers and the
cutting pools of frets

streaked peaks roaring
in silent crystal-sweat,
churning up maple maps
and threats of riffs

I found within her
a paradise of easiness,
and puzzles to the
pulse of free-form radio

The poem is on my poetry website www.eddiecastellan.com
There's a pic of the Tele, which is Korean-built, and modified with Gotoh bridge and heads; Great guitar! There's another poem and pic about my Strat too.

best wishes, Eddie

Nice guitars, welcome to the forum.................. Mike

Welcome, thank you for sharing the poem, have fun.

'Have a transparent ash/maple Tele, and the poem is right on, a fitting honour to "Margie."
