I have a '52 Tele reissue (MIJ) (a birthday present from my daughter) and your picture looks a lot like mine. The body is Ash (so is yours). I do know wood and fine woodwork. From the pictures I'd bet that you have a one-piece solid body. The wood grain continues into the bridge pu routing hole (which tells me it's not laminated). The wood grain is aligned perfectly on top, sides and bottoms. If this is more than one single piece, the person who constructed it is beyond being a master woodworker, he is a genius.

+1 That's a good way to put it. I agree.

I have a lite ash tele from Korea and I sometimes think it is a one piece also, though I haven't really checked inspected it further to see if it is or not. Your body has a great grain one that is exceptional looking. I am sure the sustain is be great. In the end one piece or two, its all about the tone and most of the two pieve 52's sound great.. Good luck!
