Re: Show us your Telecasters
Love that colour. I've tried getting a match for that a few times but it's never come out right. At one point Rockshop loaned me a guitar so I could take it down and have paint mixed to match. It still wasn't right... Do you have the code / name for that specific shade?GrantB wrote:

It is really just pure white with yellowed/browned clear over top. There are old examples of Oly white with no clear top and they are stark white.

Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...

First Tele ever. 2014 Limited Edition American Standard Telecaster Channel Bound. It is the belly cut and the compound radius that swung me after 45 years of Strats.

Re: Show us your Telecasters
I banged my Teles headstock in to the wall yesterday and gave it a nice little dent in to the otherwise quite new looking still satin finish...have I improved the tone?
