Project "Pinkie" Telecaster

lchyi · March 26th, 2006, 05:49 PM

Looks like as I was about to post, TELEKinetic stole my thunder. Anyway, here's my rendition of a Shell Pink telecaster. Also done with ReRanch stuff, turned out very good for my first time IMO though, I think I made just about every mistake doing it. It'll be put together as soon as the parts come in! (H1 body btw)

I'll keep this post updated.

Remember...Pink is the new Biege.

Looks nice.

I thought pink was the new black. Then again, I don't know much. Looks like you did a nice job with it though. What color pickguard?

very cool. I don't think I should do any reranch stuff myself, but this keeps making me want to do it anyway :D

Wasn't looking to steal your thunder....

Just a coincidence. I have been planning my Shell Pink project for a long time. When I would describe my project to friends (not teleholics) they would say "A pink guiter? Why Pink?". They didn't get it 'till they saw it.

Your's looks good and ONLY you will know where the warts are

Show the entirety when you are done......

Haha, I was just messin' with ya. I really like your shell pink, it looked like it came out very, very clean. My friends ask me the same question, I just hope they see it as classy instead of flashy, that's the main reason I went with shell pink. Plus, it might be a mental thing, I remember the first strat I ever saw on TV (for the life of me I can't remember where/when, I was very young), was a shell pink with a pearloid pickguard like your tele. Since then I thought Shell Pink was a very common color... guess not eh?
