Neck recarve :: 2014 JW Van Tele
I've carved another neck for this player and he knows what he likes. This neck was much too thick for him (~0.960") so it was carved down to his spec's and refinished with tung oil for a satin feel.
Post-builder tinkerer :: 2014 JW Van Tele
This non-original owner custom tele has the classic signs of post-builder-tinkering under the pickguard. The "Freeway" six way toggle switch was broken and needed to be replaced. Since I was in there, I decided rewire most of the circuit to tidy things up. The player utilizes volume swells and requested a master volume be added closer to the bridge within pinky reach.
