So I am just about done with a great piece of art - a butterscotch nocaster thinline tele. She is a beauty and weighs only 4 1/2 lbs with all hardware attached! This is what I would call a feather weight. You can barely tell you have a guitar strapped around you.
But don't let her weight fool you. She is loaded with CTS pots, NOS Orange Drop caps, vintage cloth wiring, Switchcraft input jack, Lindy Fralin Blues Special pickups, and a bright, powerful swamp ash body. In addition, both the neck and body are finished in Lawrence McFadden nitro paint and buff to a high gloss with an expensive Menzerna wax compound.
So in other words, she locked and loaded and ready to rock. Huge sound coming straight out of a light package. Who says you can't have your cake and eat it too?
