For those teles that were born for modding.

I'll post some pics of mine shortly

Mine's a Main Street Telecaster, Blonde whiteguard (Black PG on the works), maple fretboard(22), Top hat switch, dome knobs. It's a nice player came with an original Fender 3-saddle bridge.

It's currently my work donkey, gotta give some rest to my PRS.

Sounds like a public offense to me.

Seriously, though, lefty or righty? The pic of the headstock in your first post is righty, but you appear to be playing a lefty in the vid. But then again you have a gold band on your ring finger in that vid, which appears to be on your right hand. Is that a mirror image or something? Just curious, I guess.

During the "headstock showoff" phase of the vid

you can see that the writing is mirror-image

I like the tele, sir.

Good observation. I went back through the vid, and though it was only 3-4 seconds in length, I caught the "headstock showoff" portion the second time around.

It looks like that headstock has been modified, and some print/decal has been trimmed of with some wood, the "Main" is missing. andygutmonkey, did you re-shape the headstock? I'm not familiar with Main Streets. What did the headstock look like originally?

LGOberean · August 12th, 2012, 02:07 PM

So, andygotmonkey, lucalm...anybody? More pics of the Main Street, particularly the headstock? Seeing one trimmed up like that makes me wonder what they normally look like.

Got tired of waiting, so I did some searches on my own. Is this what the unmodified headstock on a Main Street Tele-style looks like?

Everybody with a non-Fender Telecaster has a weird Tele!
