I'm glad you guys are enjoying it so far, I know I love the build threads with a lot of pictures.

The case is a Fender Western Tooled Leather case, I got it off of ebay, where I'm sure you could find more. Not sure else where to find one, but I knew that it was the specific case that I wanted for this tele...so ebay it was.

I liked that case so much I went on Ebay and bought one for my Tele. Really nice and has a big storage compartment. Just what I was looking for. Thanks for posting it and the info on where you got it.

yes yes yes. i have played through one of those. sweeeeet amps for the money. i opted for a rebel20, thinking it was an upgrade of the tweaker. its not infact. not in my opinion.
its a very different amp. both having different tones of their own. the tweaker is a very nice bedroom/wife/parents friendly amp that can reach volumes that can get folks attention. i like them. if i could get into one at the right price (since i have a 20) i would still do so. you should give a solid review on it as i dont know that their is one on here of it.

Hi Ryan: wow, nice thread. Gotta love a double-bound Tele. Doing that with pearloid is icing the cake about an inch thick! And what a stripy neck, made from the meeting of maple tree and zebra by the look of it. Streuth!

Great job, man.

Now go to and play!

Cheers - C

PS: did you think about posting this in the Strat Forum, so's more people might see it? :lol:
