That is amazing! I mean, the body work is absolutely stunning,, the curves and slopes look how I bet they sound...haha! The pickup position is perfect for jazz application, very well thought out....I am very much a purist when it comes to the telecaster look and tone, but when you see this guitar you know it is a jazz cat...excellent, thanks for sharing the drawing as well!
