Rain Man's posts have been deleted (except for one), but I am not sure he has been banned. He is now posting as "TormentaFuego" ("Firestorm"). I have asked Brad why Rain Man still shows as a member and reported his post as "Firestorm". This guy is metally ill and a way needs to be found to deal with him permanently. Note that I am not recommending a visit by "Guido", but ..... :lol: :lol: :lol:

Very nice guitar with a custom paint job. I see the path to these pictures are: http://i1162.photobucket.com/albums/q53 ... etele2.jpg So I hope working under a new user name you will try to be civil. All of us enjoy healthy conversations. I just do not get why from the start you have been accusing and dishonest. You have some nice guitars and could contribute to some quality conversation.

That's a really nice Tele. Was it a Fender Custom Shop order or was it done by someone else?

I also agree with Mr X. You have some really nice guitars, so tell us more.

Nice find, nice polish, great result.

I'll take 2 of them! Wait.... :D

Xhef, whats it like after all these years of searching, of being in the industry and market for such a specific model of guitars to find such a rare one? We're all enthusiasts here but we can safely assume you're a little more invested than most :). Is it validating, for what seems like a lifetimes worth of dedication to the plus and ultras, for this gem to pop up? A little reward for all your hard work? Or just another day in the office?

Looking at the pictures, I think its a bit more than another day in the office :)

Well done Xhefri and thanks for sharing not only this rare find, but ALL your fantastic work with us on the forums (still loving that quilted warmoth body rebuild ya did, that has to be my fav)

Thanks for your kind words Mr. Impulse7. Finding this body was out of the unusual. While I agree that it does not look exactly like some of the Firestorms posted by the troll, I have no doubts that it is a genuine Fender body, as I pointed out in this thread, by all examinations.

I am beat as we are in the Grand Canyon right now shooting video for a TV documentary. We will be making our way toward CO by the end of the week. This has been exhausting. Very little time for Forum or even email.

TV Doc? Anything to do with guitars or a real world job?

I need to appologise before, I said that the quilted build was my fav

Image

but it was actually the companion build to that which was the flame

Image

Yeah, definitely that one :) But this threads already had enough hijacking ;) So congrats on the icestrom and hopefully you knockoff work soon and can sit down with some cold ones and enjoy the canyon (Was wonderful when I was there 17 years ago, can only imagine what it looks like now).
