Telecaster Guitar Forum - View Single Post - A breathtaking look at the future of guitar building

I come to this as an absolute purist - meaning that the only guitar that I will ever build is a Tele. I only play Teles and only collect Teles. I have no desire to build any variations. That's just me.

I didn't mean to suggest that there was no craftsmanship involved when using a CNC. I guess the bottom line is that, I don't build guitars because I need more guitars. God knows, I have WAY more than I'll ever need already. I build them because I love the process. Using CNC would take most of that away for me.
