fischkopp August 14th, 2009, 10:45 PM Hi everybody!
My name is Ole, I am from Germany...
I've been watching this great forum for quite some time, so now I would like to show you my last Tele-built.
The neck is rosewood/ebony from Warmoth
Body is Walnut with walnut burl top (Body was done by me)
hardware Wilkinson, PU's Guitar Fetish (I am very pleased with Jay's stuff)
Finish is high gloss nitro (Rattle cans)
Fischkopp means fishhead, that's how we guys from the coast are called...
This one was done for my uncle, I am a southpaw....
Hope you like it...
If you are interested, I post pictures of my previous 3 builts too (ok, one is a Strat :razz: )
By the way, this is an absolute great forum!!!
Cheers,
Ole
nvilletele August 14th, 2009, 10:56 PM That is one gorgeous guitar . . . absolutely beautiful.
oh, and welcome to the forum . . . .
telechaser August 14th, 2009, 11:11 PM Looks really sweet. Threads like this makes me wanna put together a Walnut Tele. Nice work.
TeleGlider August 14th, 2009, 11:21 PM Hi Ole,
Welcome to the Forum !!!
Love your Fischkopp guitar....very nice work.
Good to see such high quality photos as well.
otterhound August 14th, 2009, 11:29 PM Gorgeous . I want to see a leftie !
Nick JD August 15th, 2009, 02:01 AM Nice - walnut is such a pretty wood.
Mojotron August 15th, 2009, 02:42 AM That is nicely done (not meaning to under state how beautiful that looks) - Thanks for posting the pics - gives me some ideas.
the_utp August 15th, 2009, 03:01 AM That's beautiful! Did you custom make the pick guard? I really like how it follows along with the grain in the top down near the controls. Excellent work!
olaftheholy August 15th, 2009, 05:03 AM Ole,
Das ist ein absolutes kunst-stuck...
Congratuliert, i glaube alle hier auf TDPRI hatten etwas zu lernen von dir.
Cheers,Olaf.
tweeet August 15th, 2009, 05:40 AM Hi Ole,
Welcome to the Forum !!!
Love your Fischkopp guitar....very nice work.
Good to see such high quality photos as well.
Beautiful......and the high quality photos...well you are German....Germans always do things well,from football to guitars......there again the camera is probably Japanese....what I'm trying to say is that if it was British made it would break down...just like the new washing machine......but that's another story.Any more builds in the pipeline ?
Beerfish August 15th, 2009, 10:34 AM From one fish to another that is a beautiful guitar, you take nice pics too.
Hackguitarist August 15th, 2009, 10:42 AM Gorgeous . I want to see a leftie !
:mrgreen:
barkley August 15th, 2009, 11:00 AM That really looks great!
I made an Aussie walnut tele this year, thinline too!
oh, and welcome (from another newby!)
mlp-mx6 August 15th, 2009, 12:40 PM Beautiful guitar! Is that light-colored back walnut too?
This inspires me to get going on the walnut lumber I have.
pilotfish August 15th, 2009, 12:51 PM That's really nice--the walnut is beautiful. I even like your logo!
blimpo August 15th, 2009, 12:58 PM wow!
RomanS August 15th, 2009, 02:39 PM Gorgeous! Congratulations!
irishtele August 15th, 2009, 03:04 PM That looks amazing!!
Post the rest of you builds!! :)
SixShooter August 15th, 2009, 05:52 PM Spectacular! So tastefully designed and put together.
What does it sound like?
fishtownmike August 15th, 2009, 06:42 PM Thats some great work. Looks great. Good Job.:grin:
fischkopp August 15th, 2009, 10:57 PM WOW!
Thanks for the flowers guys!!!
@ the utp: the pickguard also came from Warmoth...
@ tweeed: the pictures just took some black fabric and some increase of contrast...
yes, more guitars to come... have to wait until fall, house needs some work right now!
@ mlp-mx6: yes, the back is walnut too! In reality it looks darker.
@ SixShooter: IMHO it sonds a little warmer than a standart Tele, but the ebony fretbord still gives a lot of snap.
Again, thanks for the replies, I'm glad you like it.
I will post some pics of the former builds.
Cheers,
Ole
