Any teleheads out there know of a builder who's designed/built a tele-style harp guitar?

I'd like to see if anyone's ran into any issues before I start my design candidates.

Bumping to see if I can get some info.

Harp Guitar? Like the Gibsons?

p.s. image googling that reveals some funky ideas:

I started designing an electric harp guitar as a harp tele. It turned into a harpStrat with an additional (ukulele) neck. Though it's steel strings and not nylon so it doesn't sound like a uke at all. Much more chimey.
