Firstly, I have nothing to do with the company etc etc disclaimer, but i am a VERY happy customer of him.
I just love that "real" relic look on the Teles.

Approximate price for those Teles in US dollars? Thanks jvc

I've just sent him a mail with the question so will let you know. Feel free to mail him with any questions, he loves to talk guitars, especially Teles.

The prices are listed on the website, click on the 'bodies and necks' link... last I checked, 250 pounds was about $400 US, but things change... do a google search on 'currency converter' and you'll find a link that will give you today's values...

he just mailed me to say the total cost is around $1140.
What can I say ??

Send me your 52 RI tele, and for the low fee of $100 I will make it look like it was played hard for a year.

This will however take me about a year to do. If your not happy with the results, I'll give you your $100 back.

If ya buy a new 52 RI it'll cost ya about the same amount as the Bravewood relic. Then ya gotta relic it yersef or have someone do it for you. Personally, I hate the look and feel of new, pristine guitars, no character. I like em beat and sweet. JMHO jvc

yeah, but if you relic it, then it doesn't really have your character. It's just unnatural.
