Kind of like this one. Even if it is left handed:

I kind of like how the grain shows through the white.

Hey guys!

First post here.

I am the proud owner of Rice 066 and it rocks! This is my first tele and I'm pretty floored by it. It sounds fantastic. It sounds very big and full both acoustically and plugged in. I never realized how much louder this would be from the rest of my single coil guitars. It's like I'm plugging in a humbucker guitar with twang and clarity. It's the biggest neck I've had too and I really like it. It's also got the best volume knob sweep I've ever tried. No loss of anything except volume, and dist if your amp or pedal cooperates. It's one of my favorite features.

This thing gets real nasty too. With some OD or my cranked Fargen Dual Classic, this thing just kills. It's like you have to tame it with the volume knob!

I've only had it a few weeks but so far I love it.

Chris and Rich did a great job at taking what I wanted and making it a reality. Pete, I'm glad you noticed the body too. I pretty much told Rich I wanted it to look aged without being relic'd. He came up with using a light coat of white to let the wood grain show through and then using som eamber nitro over it. It sort of across between a mary kaye type color with the the old natural blackguard type woodgrain pattern. He pretty much nailed what I asked for!

So I hope I can contribute a little here. This is my first "real" tele style guitar and I'll probably have a bunch of stupid noob questions!
