You TROUBLEMAKER!

So this really appeals, in fact I could be happy with Tele shaped variations of all the pick-up/bridge/trem combinations:

I would prefer a proper tele headstock or a smaller strat headstock, but it's a minor point and I could live with it as is.

It's great, connects nicely to a thread I saw recently on FB with people with time & money on their hands. Wrinkled frowns & happy faces of Tele owners endlessly thrashing out if it is indeed a Tele if it has homebuckers.
Well named and unoriginal project.

Not to mention the bridge and headstock...

Looks great though.

the blind fold test with John 5 is good viewing
There are still some that think the neck PU is moved to accommodate the extra frets which only proves they cannot detect the difference in length of each.
