Paul Waller is building a prototype Tele at the Fender Custom Shop.... carved out of a single piece of curly maple for back and sides..... with a carved solid spruce top... he carved these by hand no jigs or molds of any kind because this is only one....
He'll stain it Gretsch orange and put antique cream bindings with thumbnail neck markers... T.V. Jones Classic Filtertrons for pickups..... the spruce top is in the rack next to him near the neck... kind of hard to see....
