    That looks like a great job! I like the P-90 pup in the neck. The pearloid pick guard looks really good against the black and the binding accentuates the whole thing.

    This'un likes that'un! Nice contrast between the finish and binding. Heresy in the form of a p-90 on a Tele! What is this world coming to?:rolleyes:;)

    The best tele I ever owned had a P-90 in the neck. You're going to love that combo. And that is an absolutely beautiful guitar too.

    Love it. It’s a 9.5 radius which feels better/thicker to me than my other maple tele necks which are a 12 radius.

    The P90 is twangier and brighter than I expected.

    Looks awesome. What are the details on the pickups and hardware?

    Purty. I am tempted by a P90 neck pickup, but I don’t really like my tele the way it is. So I suppose I eventually have to get/build another.
