Hohner Tele Deluxe ???

jwells393 · March 28th, 2006, 05:01 PM

This Hohner looks like a Telecaster Deluxe without the big goofy headstock. It was black and in pretty rough shape when I bought it. I've refinished it with Krylon and Deft, relocated the jack plate and installed GFS pickups.

Ready for repaint:

what is that Krylon color

I have a beater that needs some paint, and that color is really close to what i've been thinking about.

Krylon Jade Satin.

By the way, those GFS pickups sound great !

Well sure. Doesn't GFS stand for Great Freakin' Sound?

I love your projects Jack and always look forward to seeing the next. You really have a knack for creating diamonds in the rough, but I love your homebrews as well. My favorite will be when we post Mikey's jwells prototype Esquire.
